Merge subplot_demo into subplot example.

anntzer · anntzer · commit 3388f54c06af · 2021-06-27T13:44:29.000+02:00
The contents are nearly the same as the first example in subplot.py,
except for the sharey'ing (but that's not discussed at all in
subplot_demo.py, and is anyways described more in depth in
subplots_demo.py)
