Description
## Describe the issue
I am having an issue specifically with the Resize callback. The other callback options appear to work as expected. For example replacing `'resize_event'` with `'draw_event'` in the code block below gives no issues.
```python
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
from ipywidgets import Output
%matplotlib widget
output = Output()
@output.capture()
def key_event(event):
print('action')
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(np.random.rand(10))
fig.canvas.mpl_connect('resize_event', key_event)
display(output)
```

Research direction
Start by running the supplied Jupyter Notebook example with ipympl 0.7.0 and compare the `resize_event` callback with `draw_event`. Trace the `fig.canvas.mpl_connect` entry point through the notebook integration to identify why resizing does not reach the callback. Done means the example prints `action` when the figure is resized, with the existing callback behavior preserved.
