Apr 04, 2017

Mainly backend-focused release with compatibility with Phosphor 1.0 and
a big refactor of session handling (the ClientSession class) that
provides a simpler object for classes like notebooks, consoles,
inspectors, etc. to use to communicate with the API. Also includes
improvements to the development workflow of JupyterLab itself after the
big split.
