This breaks saving PNG when using the PGF backend.

Fixes matplotlib#8121.

* Update documentation of stem

changed here: matplotlib@d68662a

* Update vlines example with axes wide lines.

* Clean up BoundaryNorm docstring

* Document what happens when ncolors > bins

* BoundaryNorm docstring clarification

* BoundaryNorm docstring formatting

* Added set_xlim and set_ylim check for non-finite limit values

* FIX: masked images with interpolation

When determining which pixels to mask in the resampled image, if _any_
contribution to final value comes from a masked pixel, mask the
result.

Due to Agg special-casing the meaning of the alpha channel,
the interpolation for the mask channel needs to be done separately.
This is probably a template for doing the over/under separately.

print out exact hash on travis

* Cleaned up invalid axis limit warning text

* FIX tick label alignment can now be specified

This patch adds two new rcParams allowing to set label alignment. The sole
reason for the existance of these new parameters is to allow user to reset the
style to before 2.0 for testing purposes. More specifically, ytick horizontal
alignement was changed in a non backward compatible way. xtick vertical
alignement was added for API consistency.

closes matplotlib#7905

* MAINT created a new private _classic_test stylesheet

* FIX small nitpicks

* Template-ize visual_tests.py.

This makes the result a bit more reproducable and comparable.

* Don't start a browser for visual tests on CI.

Travis may or may not have a browser installed, but AppVeyor definitely
does, so this saves a tiny bit of processing power per run.

* Move visual_tests into tools.

* Add tools directory to pep8.

* pgf: Fix invalid arguments passed to pdftocairo.

This breaks saving PNG when using the PGF backend.

* Simplify multicolored_line example

* Move multicolored_line example

* Small fixes

* Put boundarynorm example back in

* Add autoclass entry for Artist API doc.

Adding an autoclass entry in the Artist API ensures that that class
appears in the intersphinx `build/html/object.inv`, as can be checked by
```
"matplotlib.artist.Artist" in (
    sphinx.ext.intersphinx.read_inventory(
        open("build/html/objects.inv", "rb"), None, lambda *args: None)[
            "py:class"])
```
(now returns True).

This allows other projects to link to that class in their docs using
```
`Artist` <matplotlib.artist.Artist>
```

This possibility used to be present, but disappeared when the Artist API
doc got refactored.  (Other classes that appear in the API docs are fine
as they already use autoclass.)

* add a line to README that explains use of gitter

* Fixes matplotlib#8141
Validators for dashed linestyles now allow None as an allowed value along with floats through optional `allow_none` kwarg in validate_nseq_float. Other validators that use validate_nseq_float arent affected

* TST: Enable cache directories on AppVeyor.

* Use secure links to FreeType tarballs.

* Try harder to cache FreeType tarball on Python 2.

Note, we don't need to do this on AppVeyor because the cache directories
are different.

* Ignore invisible axes in computing tight_layout.

* combining and updating 2d hist examples

* consolidating histogram examples and moving to SG folder

* Memoize parse_fontconfig_pattern; speeds up test suite by ~1min.

On my laptop this patch drops the duration of the test suite from 604s
to 554s (with the inkscape patch on as well).

* addressing small change comments

* Contouring 1x1 array (issue 8197)

* another attempt; add a test

* Set __name__ for list validators in rcsetup.

This avoids having many validators all named `f`, which makes profiling
a bit difficult (it appears that repeated validation of rcparams when
resetting the style at the beginning of each test instance contributes
quite a bit to the total test time).  Instead, the list validator
based on scalar validator function `validate_foo` is now `__name__`d
`validate_foolist`, and the list validator based on scalar validator
class `ValidateFoo` is now `__name__`d `ValidateFooList`.

* TST: fail on missing baseline file
