PR Summary

This script can essentially be emulated with

$ ipython -i "import yt"

It hasn't received any significant update/maintenance for 13yrs, and doesn't have a clear added value now with a decade of improvements in IPython's autocompletion (and it's getting even better in IPython 8.0, thanks to our own @cphyc : ipython/ipython#12395).
I think it should be removed.

I am a little concerned with this in a few regards:

  1. I regularly use yt load from the command-line to start up ipython sessions with yt pre-loaded. I would've liked to have had some say in this before it got merged.
  2. When did we only need one approve before merging code that deprecates and removes a long-standing feature? Particularly when it was proposed and merged in less than 24h and with a single approve.

@chummels this doesn't get rid of yt load.
