aggressively try to speed 'axrange' edits for splom

... by passing Plots.supplyDefaults which can take more than 100ms
    for large splom traces (because of all those axes to coerce).

- N.B. this commit applies to optimization to all 'axrange',
       I could make apply only to hasOnlyLargeSplom graphs if
       deemed too dangerous.
