Better error message for DataFrame.hist() without numerical columns (…
Closes #10444

Added simple check for non-zero number of numeric columns plus suggested error message in case the check fails. 

Happy to make any adjustments this if desired.

 @matsmaiwald 

thanks for the PR.

the CI failure looks unrelated to your change.

can you add a test, perhaps using the code sample in the issue as the test case? Thanks for the code review @simonjayhawkins.

I just added a test in the way you suggested. lgtm @datapythonista @TomAugspurger  lgtm, not sure about marking the test as slow, is it really slow?

Also, if this can wait until #26414 that would make my life a bit easier (will be much easier to resolve the conflict here than there). > lgtm, not sure about marking the test as slow, is it really slow?

that had crossed my mind, but all the tests in this module are marked as slow, so was thinking that it would be better to mark as slow at the module level as a follow-up at some point. thanks @matsmaiwald
