tools.make_subplots titles don't respect row_width/column_width #1229

Description

@jonmmease

The plotly.tools.make_subplots function supports adding titles to subplots by carefully placing annotations. make_subplots also supports a row_width /column_width parameter to specify non-uniform subplot widths/heights.

But it looks like the subplot title placing logic does not take row_width /column_width into account:

trace1 = go.Scatter(
    x=[0, 1, 2],

trace2 = go.Scatter(
    x=[2, 3, 4],
    y=[100, 110, 120],
)
trace3 = go.Scatter(
    x=[3, 4, 5],
    y=[1000, 1100, 1200],
)
fig = tools.make_subplots(rows=3, cols=1,
                          shared_xaxes=True,
                          vertical_spacing=0.1,

                          row_width=[0.2, 0.4, 0.2]
                         )

fig.append_trace(trace1, 3, 1)

fig.append_trace(trace3, 1, 1)

fig['layout'].update(height=600, width=600, title='Subplots with Shared X-Axes')
