Description
## Describe the issue
It seems that the widget backend is doing something that is deprecated, and I thought I should make a note of it here.
Example:
```python
import warnings
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib widget
warnings.simplefilter("always", DeprecationWarning)
plt.subplots()
```
I get the following warnings
```python-trace
/home/maij/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ipywidgets/widgets/widget.py:412: DeprecationWarning: Passing unrecoginized arguments to super(Canvas).__init__().
__init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'figure'
This is deprecated in traitlets 4.2.This error will be raised in a future release of traitlets.
super(Widget, self).__init__(**kwargs)
/home/maij/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ipywidgets/widgets/widget.py:412: DeprecationWarning: Passing unrecoginized arguments to super(Toolbar).__init__().
__init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'canvas'
This is deprecated in traitlets 4.2.This error will be raised in a future release of traitlets.
super(Widget, self).__init__(**kwargs)
```

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the warning with the supplied Python snippet and the `%matplotlib widget` backend, then trace the Canvas and Toolbar initialization mentioned in the traceback. Compare behavior with the listed ipympl, ipywidgets, and traitlets versions; done means the example no longer emits these DeprecationWarning messages and the behavior is covered by an appropriate regression check.
