This PR aims to fix #4189.
Briefly, this PR would allow people to use 2D structures like matrices, data.frames and tibbles as aesthetics.
We just had to adopt the {vctrs} way of measure sizes and setting names at select places for this to.
Importantly, this does not implement appropriate scales for such aesthetics, but it removes a barrier for extension developers to implement them.
