Tick formatting depending on x range

See original GitHub issue

Use case: Timeseries with zooming/unknown X range.

Want to show only dates when I have data of multiple days (but the full timestamps in tooltips), and more fine grained x values if I have data only of a few hours, or I have zoomed.

Easiest solution would be have the axis.x.tick.format function take three arguments value, minValue, maxValue, with the latter specifying the currently shown X range.

I was wondering if it’s possible now out of box or should I use hack?
