Ngx-charts: Add box plot chart type

[chriszrc]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Has a box plot chart type been considered for addition?

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like a basic box plot chart type, as seen here - https://plot.ly/javascript/box-plots/

Describe alternatives you've considered
I don't really see a reasonable way to implement this as a combo chart, so I think this probably needs to be its own chart type

@chriszrc The PR has the following box plot chart as requested. Attached a screen of it.

Just finished it with the basic functionality along with some extra features and fixes like as animations. Adding the data series as points on each box side would take a bit but surely gonna be added on the near future, as long as I get some free time.

Thanks for the idea mate.
Cheers!

There is a PR made by myself way back which does provide the box plot chart :P

This looks like it's an awesome feature, @EtienneLamoureux @KingDarBoja any idea on the review process timeline. Think for the short term we're going to have to go for a plotly implementation alongside ngx-charts which so far has been far nicer.
