Multi-category sorting misbehaves with missing categories

Originally reported in https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/issues/1491.

There seems to a multi-category sorting bug that wasn't fixed by #3362.

Plotly.newPlot('myDiv', fig, {showSendToCloud: true});

The problem is that in the second multi-category (2018), the 4 is sorted before 1, 2, 3 even though they are specified in ascending sorted order.

As noted in https://github.com/plotly/plotly.py/issues/1491, this seems to happen for categories that are not present in the first multi-category (2017).

Reproduisez le comportement à l’aide de l’exemple CodePen fourni et de la configuration de Plotly.newPlot, en vous concentrant sur le tri d’un axe à catégories multiples lorsqu’une catégorie n’apparaît que dans le groupe ultérieur. Comparez l’ordre affiché avec l’ordre croissant spécifié ; le travail est considéré comme terminé lorsque la seconde catégorie multiple est triée dans l’ordre 1, 2, 3, 4, tout en conservant le comportement signalé dans l’exemple.
