Creating the figure with selectedpoints does not register those points to the SelectedData

Describe the bug

When creating a new figure with a preset selectedpoints,
The selectedData of the figure doesn't get updated and remains empty.

You can see this bug when running the example from https://dash.plotly.com/interactive-graphing Generic Crossfilter Recipe

First, we get an error when we select data because we check if selectedpoints_local exists, and then if the range exists,
the problem is that my guess is in the new versions of dash, selectedData property return a dictionary with {'points':[ ]},
which means it's not empty but the points list is.

if we check if the points list is empty before getting the range, we don't get an error.
But because the selectedData of the newly created figure is empty the second it's created the callback is called again with empty selectedData and removes all of our filters.

Expected behavior

I guess the expected behavior would be that the selectedData will be updated based on the data from the newly created figure
(which means the points, range, and maybe more stuff I don't know about)

Inizia con il Generic Crossfilter Recipe dell’esempio di grafici interattivi e riproduci il callback con una figura creata usando selectedpoints preimpostati. Esamina come vengono gestiti selectedData e i relativi points e range quando viene creata la figura. Il lavoro è completato quando selectedData riflette la selezione preimpostata e il callback non cancella i filtri esistenti.
