Title: Rubberband

This extension allows to select cells in a notebook using a rubberband style selection.
Press shift + click mouse and drag the rubberband over the desired cells:

This marks all cells touching the rubberband and adds `cell.metadata.selected=true`.

Works only for cells that are currently visible in the browser. Not sure how an UI for scrolling while dragging the rubberband should work.
