add facet support for *_mapbox functions

[harisbal]

I suppose this is already in the roadmap but I created this issue just in case

Hi - we are trying to tidy up the stale issues and PRs in Plotly's public repositories so that we can focus on things that are still important to our community. Since this one has been sitting for several years, I'm going to close it; if it is still a concern, please add a comment letting us know what recent version of our software you've checked it with so that I can reopen it and add it to our backlog. Thanks for your help - @gvwilson

Just checked the documentation of the current version (5.22.0) of plotly.express.scatter_mapbox version and facetig is not part of its parameters. The same holds for the line_mapbox, choropleth_mapbox and density_mapbox functions.

It would be very convenient if facetting would be possible in these visualizations, as now I have to resort to a workaround that uses subplots.

thanks @b-a0 - I've reopened and will assign to myself to get it into our backlog. No idea when someone will be able to look at this, but we'll keep it alive...

@archmoj will your recent work address this?
