ggplotly boxplot tooltip shows transformed value instead of original value

[ghost]

The ggplotly boxplot hover values not supporting ggplot scale transformation. They incorrectly apply the transormation to the hover values instead of leaving them as is. This is related to the closed issue (#804) and open issue (#1581).

library(tidyverse)
library(plotly)

plot <- ggplot(diamonds, aes(cut, price)) +
  geom_boxplot() +
  scale_y_continuous(trans = "sqrt", limits = c(0, 25000))

ggplotly(plot)
