Description

Axis labels are drawn using ctx.fillText, which apparently does not support line breaks. It would be nice if uPlot could work around this automatically.

Research direction

Start by locating the axis-label rendering path that calls ctx.fillText and determine how labels containing line breaks are currently handled. Done means axis labels display their line breaks automatically without disrupting existing label rendering.
