BoxPlot - multiple issues

Make sure these boxes are checked before submitting your issue - thank you!

• I have checked the superset logs for python stacktraces and included it here as text if any
• I have reproduced the issue with at least the latest released version of superset
• I have checked the issue tracker for the same issue and I haven’t found one similar

Superset version

0.15.4

Expected results

Box plot displays using provided options.

Actual results

Box plot throws KeyError on query for group by terms (1 or many)

Steps to reproduce

Add a datasource

SELECT *,
        ROUND(RAND(1), 2) AS `measurement` 
FROM (
    SELECT
        NOW()-INTERVAL 1 HOUR AS `date`
    ) t1
    CROSS JOIN (
        SELECT "US" AS `attribute_1` UNION SELECT "CA" UNION SELECT "DE" UNION SELECT "AU"
    ) t2
     CROSS JOIN (
        SELECT "M" AS `attribute_2` UNION SELECT "F" UNION SELECT "C" UNION SELECT "N\A" 
    ) t3
;

1. Enter visualization for that data source
2. Select Box Plot
3. Add measurement to metrics; attribute_1, attribute_2, together or alone as group by terms
4. Hit Query

Additionally the Box Plot graph type is requiring a date. This shouldn’t be necessary.
