allow IPython to run without writable home dir...
allow IPython to run without writable home dir get_ipython_dir() ensures that the *IPython* dir is writable, which is more relevant, but the home dir need not be writable. Some optional behaviors (e.g. `%logstart global`) will not work if the home dir is not writable, but IPython should not crash. Approximately no other operations actually depend on writing directly to $HOME.

"""
A backwards compatibility layer for IPython.Shell.
Previously, IPython had an IPython.Shell module. IPython.Shell has been moved
to IPython.core.shell and is being refactored. This new module is provided
for backwards compatability. We strongly encourage everyone to start using
the new code in IPython.core.shell.
