Show labels of grouped pandas dataframe in one legend #198

Description

@zxdawn

Description

Proplot plots the legend for each label instead of listing labels on one legend.
As a result, several legends are stacked together.

Steps to reproduce

import proplot as plot

df = pd.DataFrame({'A' : ['foo', 'bar', 'foo', 'bar',
                          'foo', 'bar', 'foo', 'foo'],
                   'B' : ['one', 'one', 'two', 'three',
                       'two', 'two', 'one', 'three'],
                   'C' : np.random.randn(8),
                   'D' : np.random.randn(8)})

fig, axs = plot.subplots()
df.groupby('A')['C'].plot(legend=True, ax=axs)

Expected behavior:
test_group_legend_matplotlib

Actual behavior:
test_group_legend

Equivalent steps in matplotlib

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

df = pd.DataFrame({'A' : ['foo', 'bar', 'foo', 'bar',
                          'foo', 'bar', 'foo', 'foo'],
                   'B' : ['one', 'one', 'two', 'three',
                       'two', 'two', 'one', 'three'],
                   'C' : np.random.randn(8),
                   'D' : np.random.randn(8)})

df.groupby('A')['C'].plot(legend=True)
plt.show()
