PR Summary

Remove the example "Easily creating subplots"

It's redundant to "Creating multiple subplots using plt.subplots"
and the topic is better covered therein.

... This probably needs a doc build before anyone merges to make sure there are no cross-refs to this.

I guess the problem w/ removing an example is if there are external links. Did we every come up with a way to redirect old examples to the new example?

Not very active, but maybe still worth a look: https://github.com/sphinx-contrib/redirects

Read the Docs also has some redirecting capability: https://docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user-defined-redirects.html
(without reading) I suppose we cannot simply reuse that.

OTOH I wouldn't be too worried over a broken link for this particular case.
