Title: WIP: Manual rebase of @dlsun's tabs implementation

This version is a WIP. The commit is supposed to reflect @dlsun's original implementation as closely as possible and we can move on from there. I modified the author to give Dennis proper credit. I'm happy to do a bit more work on this, but I thought I'd advertise now to get feedback on the UI.

Is the right place to discuss this PR on issue #1905? The code is pretty much unchanged from Daniel's implementation, which is PR #2206 There are some good comments on that PR, which I wish could be transferred here somehow.

Here's a mini-todo list, reflecting what still needs to be done and aggregating other's comments.

* fix regressions/finish rebase:
- [ ] fix delete cell, insert cell at bottom, below, above,
- [ ] fix undelete sheet, cell
- [ ] fix execute all cells in worksheet, execute range of cells in a worksheet
* suggestions from other two issues
- [ ] I can't repro @Carreau's [issue](https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/2206#issuecomment-7351376), but it should be checked
- [ ] the tabs take up a ton of space and change in size when hovered/editing. Consider different UI?
* my suggestions
* execute all worksheets? (following ordering of the worksheets themselves)
* integrate tabs with one of the existing toolbars (they'd have to be smaller) or switch to a dropdown for them
* have to think about how the worksheets should integrate with the slides work that's ongoing. If that work hadn't started yet, I would have said that there's a presentation mode where a slide <==> worksheet. I haven't followed the slide work so I don't know how it would integrate.
