Merge pull request #4016 from takluyver/IPython-start-funcs Fix IPython.start_* functions start_kernel() didn't work at all (#4005), and I found while investigating that passing user_ns to either start_ipython() or start_kernel() had no effect, because the Application wasn't passing it on to the Shell. This is a simple fix for the most pressing issues. We should think about any other parameters that we want to be passed through from our top level API, e.g. possibly user_module. closes #4005
