No way to cleanup used memory

See original GitHub issue

When you embed bokeh plots by manually inserting div and script you get from components there is no obvious way to clean up the memory when you no longer need plots. This results into memory leaking.

Example code can be found here: https://github.com/sashabaranov/bokeh-leak-example

I prepared a Codepen to illustrate the bug I get … but it finally proves the problem is somewhere else because I don’t get these Bokeh plots remaining in that demo.
