[Includes commits from #556] This PR cleans up our legacy examples, either deleting them or making them work: - Makes the `AcmeLab` workbench-based example work again, primarily by fixing Python 2 relative imports. - Removes two egg-based demos: `AcmeLabUsingEggs` and `MOTD_Using_Eggs`. - Removes the `Lorenz` demo, which uses parts of Chaco that no longer exist (`ChacoPlotItem`) - Fixes `flake8` issues (mostly unused imports and missing copyright headers) in remaining examples - Removes the `examples` directory exclusion from the `.flake8` configuration file Closes #381 Closes #361 Closes #329

The MOTD_Using_Eggs example is broken at the moment.
After fixing namespace package-related issues (which needed updates to
setup.pyand the package layout), I was able to build eggs and move them to the expected location. But, in the end, this was not enough as theEggPluginManagerwas unable to discover the eggs in thedist\eggsdirectory - eggs which have not been installed into the environment. TheEggPluginManagerseems to only discover entry points/contributions from packages installed in the environment.Before anyone endeavours to fix the broken example, we should consider whether or not it is worth fixing in the first place.
