Merge pull request #1768 from minrk/parallelmagics...
Merge pull request #1768 from minrk/parallelmagics Update parallel magics They now display all output, so you can do parallel plotting or other actions with complex display. The `px` magic has now both line and cell modes, and in cell mode finer control has been added about how to collate output from multiple engines. Tests, docs and example notebook added.

"""An example for handling results in a way that AsyncMapResult doesn't provide
Specifically, out-of-order results with some special handing of metadata.
This just submits a bunch of jobs, waits on the results, and prints the stdout
and results of each as they finish.
