[Mne_analysis] Losing ability to scroll through raw data plot.

Does `mne sys_info` under "matplotlib" say that you are using the MacOSX
backend for matplotlib? If you do `matplotlib.use('Qt5Agg')` at the top of
your script does it work? The MacOSX backend sometimes has
issues, generally the Qt5Agg backend tends to work better.
