transforms filter breaks with one observation

Hi,

Theres an issue with the transform filter if there is only one observation. It just returns the chart axis. Below is a code to reproduce the issue.

library(data.table)
library(plotly)

# Transforms does not work if there is only one observation
x.data_exp <- data.table(Test = 'a', Exposure = 1)

plt <- plot_ly(height=400, transforms=list(list(type='filter', target=~Exposure, operation='>', value="-1"))) %>%
              add_bars(data = x.data_exp, x=~Test, y = ~Exposure) %>%
              layout(updatemenus = list(list(type='buttons', active=0, x=1.08, y=-0.1, xanchor='left', yanchor='bottom', direction='down', 
                                             buttons=list(
                                               list(label='all', method='restyle', args=list('transforms[0].value','-1')),
                                               list(label='1pc+', method='restyle', args=list('transforms[0].value','0.01')),
                                               list(label='3pc+', method='restyle', args=list('transforms[0].value','0.03'))
                                             ))))

I looked into the HTML and there is a part in the json data where "target":1. If you change this to "target":[1] the chart works as intended. So if there is only one observation maybe its outputting a scaler when it should be an array.
