Support 2D data for X and Y in contour trace

While surface plots support X, Y, and Z as 2-dimensional arrays, contour traces only support 2-dimensional arrays in the Z index, while X and Y must be 1-dimensional arrays.

Because the contour plot is a 2D representation of a surface plot, we would expect that the same data structure could be used to construct either trace.

A workaround to avoid manipulating the dataset would be to use a surface plot with an isometric projection and position so that only specific axes are visible.

See these examples for reference:

首先比较 issue 中的 Surface.js 和 Contour.js 示例，然后跟踪 contour traces 当前如何处理 X 和 Y 数组，以及它们与 surface traces 的处理方式有何不同。完成标准是：contour traces 能够在接受二维 Z 数据的同时接受二维 X 和 Y 数据，其行为与 surface plots 一致，并且针对所提供的数据形状有相应的覆盖。
