Hub should show notification when new version is available

It would be nice if there was some sort of notification when the hub detects a new version has been loaded to pypi.

As a side comment, release notes would be nice too.

I started experimenting with this and it seems easy enough (until you get to the ui stuff). We can get the latest version from: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/robotframework-hub/json and the current version is stored in version.py so it's a simple comparison.

What are you thinking of for the UI? Going to get it to work in the cmd prompt at launch first but it's possible to put it in the Web UI or the OS UI. Ideas?
