[FEA] add flag to switch between string and numerical type col for group-in-box
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. string type will result in a histogram listing the x most common cols in graphistry ui numerical type will result in a histogram showing binned intervals from min to max value in graphistry ui
both can be useful depending on use case, it would be great for a user to be able to switch between the two depending on the situation
see here for how to do the type coersion https://github.com/graphistry/pygraphistry/commit/cdd1278c2b9f0ba814c4eae960b2aac234fdd0c2

@mj3cheun this feels more like a graphistry thing than a pygraphistry, right?
- in ui, the ability to change the kind of histogram
- in the REST protocol, maybe give hints at this, or maybe make it explicit via arrow supporting something like categorical column types, and we propagate through? see dictionary type @ https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/data.html
