Segfault when plotting to axis of closed figure

Comece reproduzindo o cenário de uma figure fechada com PythonPlot v1.0.2 e o exemplo em Julia presente na issue. Em seguida, inspecione o tratamento da GUI do PythonPlot nas proximidades de src/pygui.jl, linha 199, e a stack matplotlib/Tk exibida no trace. Considera-se concluído quando plotar em uma figure fechada não causar mais um segmentation fault e, em vez disso, se comportar com segurança, idealmente gerando um erro caso a operação não seja compatível.

If we attempt to plot to the axis of a figure that has already been displayed and closed, then on my machine Juliaa segfaults.

julia> fig, ax = subplots()  # opens plot window, leave open
Python: (<Figure size 640x480 with 1 Axes>, <Axes: >)

julia> ax.scatter(randn(10), randn(10))  # adds plot to window
Python: <matplotlib.collections.PathCollection object at 0x7f0df059df50>

Then close the opened plot window and run the following, which causes the segfault.

julia> ax.scatter(randn(10), randn(10))
Python: <matplotlib.collections.PathCollection object at 0x7f0df19db050>

julia>

If plotting to this axis is not supported, it would be much better to throw an error.
