This PR adds a jq postprocessing step of the generated notebooks. This extracts the embedded image data and replaces it with a different mimetype (image/png) so that it gets recognized as an image by nbsphinx. jq is called with the `system` function. jq is installed by default on the CI machines that we build the gallery on but may not be installed on all developer machines. This solution is somewhat fragile as it depends on MATLAB not changing its Jupyter notebook output format too much. Signed-off-by: William Kearney <william.kearney@uni-potsdam.de>
