Description
@fidelram, as discussed today, could we adopt pl.rank_genes_groups_dotplot so that it reads this information from .uns['rank_genes_groups']?
Maybe just a simple switch? Or having arguments color and size be a choice from a selection {pvals, pvals_adj, log2FC, expression, frac-genes-expressed}.

Research direction
Start by locating pl.rank_genes_groups_dotplot and its use of .uns['rank_genes_groups']. Review how the plot currently determines color and size, then clarify whether the requested choices are pvals, pvals_adj, log2FC, expression, or frac-genes-expressed. Done means the dotplot reads the ranking results and supports the agreed size and color mapping.
