ipykernel has started associating thread output with the Cell that spawned the Thread (ipython/ipykernel#1186), but that sends output to the wrong cell for cells that are meant to stream to the current output area.
there is currently no opt-out for this, so we have to delete the association after it is created
There should be a public API to disable this for specific Threads, but until then disable the private association after it is created
fixes #893
An alternative (and possibly better?) fix is to explicitly route outputs from the io thread to the main thread, but that's tricky with event loops.
