 The notebook needs updates to utilize a pure javascript version of Jmol by
 default for live 3-D.

 Jmol is cross compiled to java and javascript.  Because so many browser/OS
 combinations now actively try to avoid using java applets, it is necessary
 to have a pure javascript alternative.  This solution provides all the
 functionality of Jmol, but as expected since javascript is interpreted
 rather than bytecode ("~3/4" of the way to compiled) the performance when
 interacting with the plot is slower.

 This first implementation removes the user tools that appear to the right
 of the 3-D plot as they need to be rewritten as well.  In this first
 implementation it is not possible to choose to use the java applet
 instead.

 One added feature is a "load 3-D live" check box that can be used to make
 a worksheet load 3-D plots live when the worksheet is opened.  For
 worksheets with a single interact or only 1-2 plots this should be OK.

 *This requires installation of an updated Jmol.spkg.  See ticket
