Description
## Describe the issue
Installing ipympl with conda overwrites the content of `.../conda/envs/env_name/etc/jupyter/labconfig/page_config.json` resulting in enabling of all labextensions for all users (which is a big problem on a JupyterHub).
Install command:
```
conda install -c conda-forge ipympl
```
`.../conda/envs/env_name/etc/jupyter/labconfig/page_config.json` before ipympl install:
```
{
"disabledExtensions": {
"@jupyter/nbgrader:formgrader": true,
"@jupyter/nbgrader:course-list": true,
"@jupyter/nbgrader:create-assignment": true,
"kore-extension": true
},
"lockedExtensions": {
"@jupyter/nbgrader:formgrader": true,
"@jupyter/nbgrader:course-list": true,
"@jupyter/nbgrader:create-assignment": true,
"kore-extension": true
}
}
```
and after:
```
{
"lockedExtensions": {}
}
```
This is not caused by a dependency: installing all dependencies first shows that install of ipympl overwrites the file.
Using `pip install ipympl` everything works as expected (`page_config.json` remains untouched).

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with `conda install -c conda-forge ipympl` and compare `.../conda/envs/env_name/etc/jupyter/labconfig/page_config.json` before and after installation. Use the reported pip behavior as a comparison; done means the existing `disabledExtensions` and `lockedExtensions` settings remain intact after the conda install.
