Description

## Describe the issue
Now that ipywidgets master is being updated again ipympl should run a weekly workflow checking that nothing breaks. This could either be in the workflow that runs against dev matplotlib or in a separate one.

This might be as simple as:
```
pushd $(mktemp -d)
git clone https://github.com/jupyter-widgets/ipywidgets.git --single-branch --depth 1
cd ipywidgets
bash dev-install.sh
popd
```

Research direction

Start by locating the workflow that tests against development matplotlib and determine whether ipywidgets master belongs there or in a separate workflow. Review the proposed clone and dev-install sequence, then verify the workflow runs weekly and detects breakage in ipympl against the current ipywidgets master.
