Treat range() as a simple array

Fixes plotly#1798 (incorrectly closed during a recent cleanup).

Allows range() to be passed where simple arrays are expected.

Previously the following code

```python
import plotly.graph_objects as go
go.Figure(go.Scatter(x=range(3), y=[3, 2, 1]))
```

failed with

```

(tested via [Google Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/notebooks/empty.ipynb))

After this change, it is possible to use `range()` in this context.

A potential concern is Python 2 support — there, `range()` is a plain list. I have not tested this with Python 2.
