In order to provide full Lean Indicator functionality to python custom indicators, they need to inherit from a C# class. `PythonIndicator` will serve for this purpose.
Algorithms can use the former version (no inheritance).
In order to add support custom python indicators for `QCAlgorithm.PlotIndicator`, we created a `PythonIndicator` class that wraps the custom python indicator. In `QCAlgorithm`, the reference of the wrapper is saved into a dictionary keyed by the python indicator handle.
We didn't experience the expected performance improvements. Locally under
unit test there was aboout an order of magnitude throughput increase, but
when run against the history benchmark, this new approach was 60% slower.
We're reverting this for now to perform further analysis and better
understand the performance profiling of the python history stack.
