Support SpatialData

[keller-mark]

User story

We want to support loading SpatialData objects, including local SpatialData objects.

Preferred solution

To do this, we need an analog of the AnnDataWrapper class but for SpatialData. This wrapper class allows us to:

• know which parts/keys of the object should be used in the configuration, and how those keys should map to Vitessce concepts
• Serve the local Zarr directory on localhost so that the widget JS code can request the data via HTTP

Relevant code/documentation:

• https://github.com/vitessce/vitessce-python/blob/main/vitessce/wrappers.py
• Documentation for AnnDataWrapper class https://vitessce.github.io/vitessce-python/api_data.html#vitessce.wrappers.AnnDataWrapper
• Usage of AnnDataWrapper class in example notebook: https://vitessce.github.io/vitessce-python/notebooks/widget_brain.html#4.2.-Add-a-dataset-to-the-VitessceConfig-instance

Depends on vitessce/vitessce#1728

We will also want to embed an example notebook in the documentation that demonstrates how to use the implementation. These notebooks are located at https://github.com/vitessce/vitessce-python/tree/main/docs/notebooks

Closing this as there are now four notebooks at https://github.com/vitessce/vitessce-python/tree/main/docs/notebooks
We can open new issues for individual fixes/features related to SpatialData
