Can't set numbered subplot axis using update in plotly.py 3.0.0

[slishak]

I can create a Layout with a yaxis2 attribute using the following methods:

layout1 = go.Layout(yaxis2={'title': 'y2'})

layout2 = go.Layout()
layout2.yaxis2 = {'title': 'y2'}

layout3 = go.Layout()
layout3['yaxis2'] = {'title': 'y2'}

but not like this:

layout4 = go.Layout()
layout4.update(yaxis2={'title': 'y2'})

layout5 = go.Layout()
layout5.update({'yaxis2': {'title': 'y2'}})

because only xaxis and yaxis are valid properties for a Layout in the schema, so I get a ValueError.

Thanks for the clear report @slishak. Yeah, looks like the special handling for numbered subplots is missing from the new version of update.

It looks like a similar thing happens when adding a Scatterpolar graph to a subplot with FigureWidget.
f.add_trace(go.Scatterpolar(r=[1,2,3,4,5],theta = [2,4,6,8,10]),row=2,col=1) will try to add {'xaxis':'x1', 'yaxis':'y2'} to the Scatterpolar object, but it fails to validate.

Is this the same problem?

@slishak and @michaelbabyn, see PR #1057 for progress. Thanks!

Fixed in 3.0.2
