Install R Kernel in the environment where Jupyter sits

mckev-amazon · web-flow · commit d20e79e9d483 · 2017-11-28T11:58:08.000-08:00
Jupyter runs in a "pristine" Conda environment which isn't affected by changes in the root environment.  As a result, modifications to Jupyter (kernels, extensions, etc.) must be installed there too.

This updates the install_r_notebook to use the JupyterSystemEnv environment when installing R.
