I switched the tutorial code to use pooch (the tests still need to be updated), which means that we get the appdirs, download, and caching for free. It is a optional dependency for now, thus requiring pooch to be able to use xr.tutorial.open_*.

However, pooch seems to be mainly written for repositories that contain both the data and the code (like scikit-image's data module). If I understand it correctly, this means that we can't take full advantage of the features pooch has (such as the file registry, or the version mechanism). Some of the options we have (github_url and branch) make this even more difficult. I wonder if we should deprecate / remove them?

So for now, instead of using pooch.create(base_url=url, registry=registry).fetch(name) we use pooch.retrieve(url, hash=None, ...). Not sure if there's a better way, though.
