Description

The plotly documentation specifies that ayref can accept the paper value, as seen in
https://plotly.com/python/reference/layout/annotations/#layout-annotations-items-annotation-ayref.

however the validator does not accept this value. This is a tiny fix that adds "paper" to the validator options:
