Description

The current paga plot output a n_row =1 plot, which is not very user-friendly. It would be nice to have an option to control n_col as other plot functions in scanpy do. Thanks!

Research direction

Start at the Scanpy paga plotting entry point and compare its layout handling with other plot functions that support ncols. Reproduce the current single-row output and determine the expected behavior for a user-supplied column count. Done means paga accepts ncols and arranges its plots accordingly, with the relevant plotting behavior covered by tests.
