bug

Affects: PythonCall

Bug description
Having both PythonCall and PythonPlot imported leads to a EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION when used with multithreading with an unlocked GIL.

MWE
File: src\Pythoncall_testing.jl

import PythonCall
import PythonPlot


PythonCall.GIL.@unlock Threads.@threads  for i in 1:5
    println("Hello world")
end

Additional context
I dont want to use multithreading to plot on many threads, I just have a julia project in which I do multithreaded computation involving python, and the results of which I would like to plot with matplotlib.

From the stacktrace, it seems as though PythonPlot.__init__() gets called by each thread, which in turn calls python.
I belive this leads to a crash as the GIL is unlocked (PythonCall.GIL@unlock) but was not locked before the PythonPlot.__init__().

This is quite frustrating, as I need both PythonCall and PythonPlot and I would like to not have to separate them at the project level.

Is there some way to avoid this? Perhaps I can somehow make sure the the PythonPlot.__init__() calls are wrapped with PythonCall.GIL.@lock?

Let me know if something is unclear!
Thanks for the convenient package otherwise!
