Description
When using the scroll wheel to zoom, onRelayout seems to output the tiniest initial change rather than the layout at the end of the event (as using Zoom mode and clicking/dragging does), meaning the event better reflects the camera before the action rather than after, e.g:
- zooming in one 'click' of the scroll wheel will output with
event.scene.camera.eye.x = 1.2499999999999998, only a tiny change from the default of 1.25 - zooming in again will output with
event.scene.camera.eye.x = 0.94622499477157, a change of ~0.3 inwards - then zooming out will output with
event.scene.camera.eye.x = 0.7210090673130023, a change of ~0.2 inwards, representing another zoom in rather than out, when in theory we should be back to the position we were in after 1 zoom in
Also, if you click on the plot, then use the scroll wheel to zoom, the onRelayout event will often (but not always) be {}

Research direction
Start with the linked CodeSandbox and reproduce scrollwheel zoom on the 3D plot while observing the onRelayout console output. Compare the emitted camera values for zooming in, zooming out, and clicking before scrolling; done means the event reflects the final camera state and is not unexpectedly empty.
