New features

The readonly attribute of the Meta object now applies to all nested objects.
More concise HTML output in Jupyter notebooks with collapsible sections. Use CSS for styling.
The merging behavior of NDDataset objects has been improved. Now, several groups of datasets are returned if files are not compatible. Note that merging is the default. To enforce non-merging of compatible files, use the merge keyword set to False in read_* calls.
read_opus() has been revised and now uses the brukeropus package developed by Josh Duran (https://github.com/joshduran/brukeropus). It can read most of the spectra types contained in OPUS files, as reference experiments and not only AB type spectra as previously.
Import/Export tutorials have been updated to reflect the new brukeropus package.
read_dir() (as well as the equivalent read()) has a new keyword argument pattern to filter files to read in a directory.
Text output of the plot() method is now suppressed in Jupyter notebooks, i.e.,
```
ds.plot()
```
will no longer display the text output of the plot method but the plot alone.

Fix the readonly attribute of Meta objects used to contain dataset metadata.

The new merging behavior of datasets may require some changes in the notebooks and scripts using read_* methods.

The open/save dialog box functionality in read_* methods is deprecated and will be removed in version 0.8. This feature has been removed from the documentation.
