Bug summary
A check in lib/backends/wx_compat.py (line 156) used to select kwargs arguments for wxPython's AddTool() doesn't correctly identify version "4.0.0" of wxPython as newer than "4.0.0.b2".
Code for reproduction
import matplotlib.pyplot
matplotlib.pyplot.plot([0,1,2])Actual outcome

TypeError: ToolBar.AddTool(): arguments did not match any overloaded call:
overload 1: argument 1 has unexpected type 'int'
overload 2: 'shortHelpString' is not a valid keyword argument
overload 3: 'shortHelpString' is not a valid keyword argument```
Expected outcome
[<matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at 0x...>]
Changing line 156 of lib/backends/wx_compat.py to the following snippet appears to solve the problem.
