smart defaults for funnel and image traces are not applied when restyling or reacting from trace with visible false

Both pen are bare minimum for bug reproduction.

Funnel Defualt Behaviour: Pen: https://codepen.io/mafar/pen/rNNYeLX?editors=0010 initialised with default options => Observe Funnel Direction

Funnel updated with Plotly.restyle: Pen: https://codepen.io/mafar/pen/YzzEqqN?editors=0010 initialised with empty x,y options and then x,y are updated with Plotly.restyle => Observe Funnel Direction

This bug is a side-effect of our input range and autorange mutations:

https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/blob/1a3d38339dc7c9b5594f94a1b1f3625f3854d2ac/src/plots/cartesian/autorange.js#L255-L256

With this piece of logic:

https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/blob/1a3d38339dc7c9b5594f94a1b1f3625f3854d2ac/src/plots/cartesian/axis_defaults.js#L56-L62

after the first plot call (the one with empty x and y coordinates), we have:

gd.layout.yaxis.autorange = true;
gd.layout.yaxis.range = [-1, 4];

On the second react/update call, we get

gd.layout.yaxis.autorange = true;
gd.layout.yaxis.range = [-0.5, 3.5]

That is, yaxis.autorange gets coerced to true (not 'reversed' as true got mutated in the user layout) leading a yaxis range of [3.5, 0.5].

---

So, adding

delete gd.layout.yaxis.autorange;
delete gd.layout.yaxis.range;

before the second react/update call is enough to work around this bug. Example: https://codepen.io/etpinard/pen/MWWxKLv?editors=0010

[mafar]

delete gd.layout.yaxis.autorange;
delete gd.layout.yaxis.range;

works . can we request an official fix please
