As a user the BOY console is confusing. I would like to script in python but I'm unaware that a BOY console is not in fact a python console. We should ensure the user encounters python consoles in the scripting section, or at least provide clearer signalling that this is not Python.

Reproduce issue

Version 1:

  1. Open GUI
  2. Switch to scripting perspective
  3. BOY console will be the default widget displayed before a console pop's

Version 2:

  1. Use the red button to kill the single python console in the scripting perspective
  2. BOY console is now the default widget shown

Acceptance Criteria

  • BOY console is not shown unless specifically requested

This will need modifications to CSS code.

Specifically, we'll probably need to add a new option for the preference org.csstudio.opibuilder/popup_console=NO_POP to completely disable BOY's console

Make sure error still gets logged somewhere, just doesn't pop up.
