Description
When having a NA-Dataframe, but correct facor levels for x and y, the created empty plot does not label the axis according to the factor levels.
In the following example I'd expect an empty plot with axis labels "Entry 1" and "Entry 2" on the x and a range of about [0; 20] on the y axis
data <- data.frame(a = factor(NA, levels = c("Entry1", "Entry2")), b = factor(NA, levels = c(1:20)))
plot_ly(data, x = ~a, y = ~b, type = "bar")
also:
data <- data.frame(a = factor(character(), levels = c("Entry1", "Entry2")), b = factor(numeric(), levels = c(1:20)))
plot_ly(data, x = ~a, y = ~b, type = "bar")

Research direction
Reproduce both examples with plot_ly using the factor levels shown in the issue, then trace how empty or NA data is handled for bar-chart axes. Verify that the completed behavior labels the x axis with Entry1 and Entry2 and gives the y axis a range of about 0 to 20.
