[enh] infobox for wolframalpha

TODO:
    - infobox styles
    - unit tests

ISSUES:
    - no_api version needs to re-call server for additional pods, such
      as plots. therefore, it's even slower than before. comment out the
part that calls get_async_pod if requests reach timeout or increase
timeout in settings.yml.
