#13543: Multi-character variables not supported in legend_labels

The simplest example I have is,
{{{
sage: hello = var('hello')
sage: latex(hello)
\mbox{hello}
sage: label = '$' + latex(hello) + '$'
sage: label
$ \mbox{hello} $
sage: plot(x, x, 0, 1, legend_label=label)
ERROR: An unexpected error occurred while tokenizing input
The following traceback may be corrupted or invalid
The error message is: ('EOF in multi-line statement', (409, 0))
...
ParseFatalException: Expected end of math '$'
$ \mbox{hello} $ (at char 0), (line:1, col:1)
}}}
It seems that matplotlib doesn't understand `\mbox`. If that's the bug to
be fixed, we can simply replace `\mbox` with `\rm` when passing to
matplotlib.
On the other hand, if I've declared `hello` to be a symbolic variable,
shouldn't it be marked up as a symbolic variable (i.e. left in math mode)?
