Create TensorBoard 0.4.0-rc1

[jart]

This PR starts the TensorBoard 0.4 minor series, which maps to TensorFlow 1.4.

The 0.4 branch has been cut from HEAD today for this series. The true name of this release will be 0.4.0-rc1, to conform to semver. However, in tensorboard.version and on PyPi it will be known as 0.4.0rc1 to conform to PEP 440. @gunan has informed me there are benefits to semver conformance, as we introduce more languages into the repository.

As soon as this change is merged, this release candidate will be published to PyPi. I've confirmed that pip install tensorflow-tensorboard will not choose by default to install an RC.

Then, I will send a PR to TensorFlow updating their setup.py to say tensorflow-tensorboard >= 0.4.0rc1, < 0.5.0, so they can create their release candidate. I'm confident this will work.
