  • Don't hard-code/expose CREATE_NO_WINDOW on Windows (I'll aggressively
    remove the global without a deprecation here), taking advantage of the
    fact that the subprocess module now exposes the constant on Windows.
  • Clarify the documentation in the rcParams for ffmpeg_path and
    convert_path. 1) subprocess.Popen (which is really what we're using)
    is not exactly just searching in the $PATH -- see the big warning to
    that respect in the CPython docs. 2) One doesn't actually need to put
    an absolute path for convert on Windows -- Matplotlib now handles this
    transparently.
