Description
Hi, im currently working with plotly in python shiny using shinywidgets. Now there seems to be an issue coming from plotly, where the callbacks dont fire for a responsive FigureWidget. Specifically callbacks installed on the widgets width. This worked with plotly v5.24.1. There i could resize the browser window, which would then resize the FigureWidget (because it is responsive) and this would trigger the width callback. This doesnt work anymore in plotly v6.2.0.
Also, every callback would be initially run when the FigureWidget is first rendered in plotly v5.24.1. This also doesnt seem to happen anymore. Is this deliberate?

Research direction
Reproduce the responsive FigureWidget behavior described in plotly.py with versions 5.24.1 and 6.2.0, resizing the browser and observing width callbacks and initial callback execution. Trace the FigureWidget responsive and callback entry points to determine whether the change is intentional; done means the behavior is explained and, if unintended, covered by a regression test.
