Use matplotlib.get_backend() to look up the current backend rather
than looking at a module-level golabl in matplotlib.backends.

Closes #9286

@tacaswell how close are we to a matplotlib release for which this fix will be needed? If it's pretty soon, we can hurry out another bugfix release of IPython; if not, we'll leave it for 4.2.

This is only broken on master and we will fix it up there as well. I think this can wait till 4.2 and should be back-compatible with all viable versions of mpl.
