Add support for scale_*(drop = FALSE)

I am having trouble getting plotly to respect a drop=FALSE argument for a geom_point() plot where I color by factor and only 1 of the factor levels is represented in the dataset. The code below generates 3 simple plots to demonstrate this

1. Simple iris plot, color by species, everything works properly
2. Same plot as 1, but only include data corresponding to a single species. The legend does not display any of the levels.
3. Same plot as 2, but adding the drop=FALSE argument to make the legend display all factor levels, even if they are not displayed in the dataset. The ggplot plot displays all levels in the legend, but the ggplotly version doesnt display any levels.

library(ggplot2)
library(plotly)

# plot all iris data
p <- ggplot(data=iris, aes(x=Petal.Width, y=Petal.Length, color=Species)) +
      geom_point()

print(p)
layout(ggplotly(p))

# just plot setosa species
setosa <- subset(iris, Species=="setosa")
p_setosa <- ggplot(data=setosa, aes(x=Petal.Width, y=Petal.Length, color=Species)) +
    geom_point()

print(p_setosa)
layout(ggplotly(p_setosa)
       , margin = list(r=100))

# setosa only, add drop=FALSE argument
p_setosa_nodrop <- ggplot(data=setosa, aes(x=Petal.Width, y=Petal.Length, color=Species)) +
  geom_point() +
  scale_color_discrete(drop=FALSE)

print(p_setosa_nodrop)
layout(ggplotly(p_setosa_nodrop)
       , margin = list(r=100))

Inizia riproducendo i tre esempi iris e setosa dell’issue, confrontando l’output di ggplot e ggplotly per scale_color_discrete(drop=FALSE). Traccia il percorso di conversione di scale e legenda di ggplotly; il lavoro è completato quando il grafico setosa conserva tutti i livelli del fattore nella legenda usando drop=FALSE, con questo comportamento coperto da un test di regressione.
