Fix asyncio error when opening notebooks

This is a fix for jupyter/notebook#6164

`nest_asyncio` must be applied before any async tasks have been created
otherwise there could be tasks queued that are unpatched, and thus do
not respect nested loops. An example of an unpatched task can be seen in
the original issue:

```
<Task pending coro=<HTTP1ServerConnection._server_request_loop() running at /apps/python3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/tornado/http1connection.py:823>
```
which originates from Tornado.

A similar issue was reported in `nest-asyncio`: erdewit/nest_asyncio#22
where the solution is to call `apply` on import so that unpatched tasks
do not get created.
