Description
### Feature Proposal
It would be very powerful for chart.js to include the possibility to animate the axes upon general calls to chart.update().
[This simple and powerful example from d3](https://bl.ocks.org/d3noob/7030f35b72de721622b8) shows how an axis animation can provide very useful context for how the scale changes, compared to just animating the datasets. Especially the Y-axis animation is helpful to grasp the scale of the update more easily:
