bug#25834: Update scientific Python packages

Hi,

I'm submitting a patch series to update numpy, matplotlib, scipy and ipython. I've split out the documentation for numpy and matplotlib into separate packages to avoid issues with the following cyclic dependencies:

 - numpy documentation depends on matplotlib, which depends on numpy.

 - documentation for the new version of matplotlib also depends on
   ipython, which depends on matplotlib and numpy.

If the preference is to work with multiple outputs instead, I can work out something with “bootstrap” packages and package-input-rewriting, but I like the simplicity of separate documentation packages (which also avoids repeatedly building the same package for bootstrapping purposes).

Thomas
