Description

Getting warnings "'layout' objects don't have these attributes: 'bargroupgap'" (which is listed here: https://plotly.com/r/reference/#layout-bargroupgap). Apart from the warnings, the chart looks fine but it would be nice to not have spurious warnings

pp <- plot_ly()
pp <- add_trace(pp, x=1:10, y=1:10, type = "bar", name = "A")
pp <- add_trace(pp, x=1:10, y=15-(1:10), type = "bar", name = "B")
pp <- layout(pp, bargap = 0.2, bargroupgap=0.05)
pp

Research direction

Start by running the supplied R example and confirm the spurious bargroupgap warning while the chart renders. Check how the R package handles layout attributes against the Plotly layout reference; done means the example no longer emits that warning and the chart remains correct.
