Here's a shot at removing any checks for, or use of, ~/.matplotlib under linux. Motivated by discussion in issue #6885. Mainly just got rid of the check in init.py and some docstring stuff there. Also took a crack at updating the environment variable FAQ since it made reference to this stuff. Passed same tests as matplotlib/matplotlib/master did when running matplotlib.test().
@tacaswell mentioned having this for 2.1 but I'm not sure how to target a particular release. I'd be happy to try again if there's a way to do that explicitly on my end.
