This PR adds a protein viewer example using the NGL molecular graphics library as discussed on Discourse 583.
Currently this is implemented with a
panel
HTML view, where changes in protein or its representation trigger a new generation of HTML, which then redraws the entire figure.Possible improvement could be (as a Bokeh extension) direct interaction with the NGL stage javascript object such that, for example, the color of the protein can be changed without redrawing the whole figure and thereby resetting the orientation.
There is also a IPywidgets variant available for the NGL viewer: https://github.com/nglviewer/nglview. This might be easier to get the desired result and full control in python, however this direct javascript/HTML approach feels more 'native'. Currently I could not get the ipywidgets approach to work (see bokeh/ipywidgets_bokeh#8)
I wasnt sure if this should be in /examples or maybe it should be in /pane because its based on an HTML pane?
