support Figure.add_plot with a figure handle

[headtr1ck]

As far as I can tell it is only possible to add custom figure files or the current active pyplot figure.
I would like to add a plot of a given matplotlib.figure.Figure object.

Currently we have the workaround by calling plt.figure(fig.number) to make fig the active figure before adding the plot.

Would it be possible to add an optional figure argument to "add_plot" (None=>active figure)?

Feel free to make a PR.
