[Feature Request] Add ggrepel support

[emilianomm]

Description

Currently plotly does no support labels created with ggrepel::geom_text_repel.

Feature requested

It is possible to make ggplotly compatible with labels generated with ggrepel package?

[MarjorieLeduc]

I also would like plotly to support ggrepel::geom_text_repel.
I prepare the following shiny that works with plotOutput but not with plotlyOutput :

library(shiny)
library(plotly)
library(ggplot2)
library(ggrepel)
library(bslib)

ui <- page_sidebar(
  title = "Hello Shiny!",
  sidebar = sidebar(
    selectizeInput(
      inputId = "Test",
      label = "Tests to show",
      choices = paste("Test",1:272),
      multiple = TRUE
    )
  ),
  plotlyOutput(outputId = "distPlot")
)

server <- function(input, output) {
  
output$distPlot <- renderPlotly({
    
  x<-faithful
  x$test<-paste("Test",1:272)
  
  ggplot(x,aes(x=eruptions,y=waiting))+
    geom_point()+
    geom_text_repel(data = x[match(input$Test,x$test),],
                    aes(label = test),
                    color="blue")
    
  })
  
}

shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)
