itermplot's most recent release on pypi is 0.331

The problem raised in issue #43 and that you fixed with PR #44 recently caused me problems. I encountered this error:

TypeError: print_png() got an unexpected keyword argument 'facecolor'

where matplotlib 3.7.1 was passing "facecolor" in as an kwargument and then complaining about it when itermplot gave it right back, which made me scratch my head a little, but I see the fix in PR #44 is simply to stop pasing kwargs down. It turns out that if you do not specify a version of itermplot to pypi, it will install what it seems to think the the most recent version, version 0.331. Indeed, if you ask pypi for the history of itermplot, it says the most recent version is 0.331 uploaded in June of 2018.

However, if you say "I want version 0.5," pypi will give it to you.

Since 0.331 is not compatible with the more recent versions of matplotlib, could you bump the release version on pypi / note the version incompatibility between 0.331 and matplotlib > 3.3 (when the API change took effect)?

Also, on a related note, the github default branch has version 0.4 in the setup.py file

To anyone else who ends up here: pip install itermplot==0.5 works great with the lastest Matplotlib, pip install itermplot doesn't work.

it doesn't work... I'm using tmux and the plot area is empty:

@ibehnam See #56... I and many others didn't manage to get itermplot v0.5 working with tmux, or older versions working at all, although it might perhaps be possible.

As far as I can tell, the project has been unmaintained for a few years now, so it's probably unlikely to be fixed unless someone forks it and picks up development. But at least for me, plotting directly in an iTerm split (without tmux) works fine.
