Bug report

Bug summary

Seeing this with matplotlib 3.0.1 and seaborn 0.9. cc @mwaskom

matplotlib.axes._axes.scatter() tests parameter c hits array index out of bound when c is an empty array.

I encountered this while using seaborn.swarmplot() with hue= parameter. Essentially this plots each group (hue, in addition to x-axis category) and some times a group can be empty for a major x-axis category.

Suggest potential fix to test length of c as well before accessing c[0].

        if (c_none or
                co is not None or
                isinstance(c, str) or
                (isinstance(c, collections.Iterable) and 
                    len(c) > 0 and # proposed fix here
                    isinstance(c[0], str))):

Code for reproduction

import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sns

df = pd.DataFrame(dict(category=['a', 'a', 'b', 'b', 'c'],
                       hue=['x', 'y', 'x', 'y', 'x'],
                       values=[1, 2, 3, 4, 3]))
sns.swarmplot('category', 'values', hue='hue', data=df, dodge=True)

Actual outcome

This is the error I see:

Happy to create a PR if we have happy with the proposed length test.
