text attribute appears on bar traces with plotly.js 2.0

[cpsievert]

Bumping plotly.js from 1.58.4 to 2.0.0 with latest release of orca (1.3.1) introduces a regression where the text attribute now appears on bar traces:

cd ~/tmp
wget https://cdn.plot.ly/plotly-1.58.4.min.js ./
orca graph '{ "data": [ { "x": [1, 2], "y": [10, 11.5], "text": ["cond: control<br />result: 10.0", "cond: treatment<br />result: 11.5"], "type": "bar" } ] }' -o before.png --plotly plotly-1.58.4.min.js 
open before.png

wget https://cdn.plot.ly/plotly-2.0.0.min.js ./
orca graph '{ "data": [ { "x": [1, 2], "y": [10, 11.5], "text": ["cond: control<br />result: 10.0", "cond: treatment<br />result: 11.5"], "type": "bar" } ] }' -o after.png --plotly plotly-2.0.0.min.js 
open after.png

This is the expected behaviour in plotly.js v2.

In order to drop text on bars, the textposition could be set to "none" similar to other traces.

Correct. The rationale here was that setting text should be enough to actually have text appear, whereas previously it would only appear in the hoverlabel, controlled via hoverinfo. The recommended thing to do now if you want stuff in the hoverlabel is to use hovertemplate (possibly in conjunction with customdata but that's optional ofc). In general this leads to smaller figures due to less repetition of values in text.

Ah ok, that's fair. For some reason I thought the static export had different behavior but I goofed up versions, thanks!
