Title: High quality inline SVG figures for notebook.

Per @ellisonbg's request, I'm submitting this pull request as a place to work on and discuss SVG figures in the notebook. See also #1832.

The basic things I've written so far are:
1. Increasing figsize to prevent pixelation of svg's.
2. Some CSS to make svg's fill the browser width. (See #1832 for work on resizable figures)
3. Modfiy `IPython.core.pylabtools.print_figure()` to make figures transparent for web use, following `matplotlib.savefig()`.
