    The DataPlot widget displays a plot, on one of several plotting backends,

    supports PyQtGraph, MatPlot and QwtPlot backends.

    The DataPlot widget manages the plot backend internally, and can save
    and restore the internal state using `save_settings` and `restore_settings`
    functions.

    Currently, the user MUST call `restore_settings` before using the widget,
