Bug: go.Scatter3d doesn't display a given tensor

Issue

While plotting an np.ndarray of type fp64, it is not displayed. It is so funny that we could reproduce it only for one specific array.

Thigs that make the script work:

• If we add epsilon (as in the commented line), then the pointcloud is displayed properly.
• If we cast to fp32 it works.
• If we add a small value (0.000000000001 for example), it works.

Things that doesn't work:

• If we add or substract big values, like 0.4, 1 or 2, it doesn't work
• If we substract epsilon, it doesn't work
• if we add numbers larger than 0.000000000001, it doesnt' work even if tehy are small (0.000001 for example)

Environment

We tried this (and reproduced in at least 2 computers) with numpy 1.26.3 and plotly 5.18.0 on ubuntu 22

Also reproducible for Mac OS 14.1.2

[Coding-with-Adam]

Also reproducible on Windows 11, Plotly.js 2.27.0.

@archmoj here's the code pen code that reproduces the empty graph.

And here's the altered code that plots the data seemingly correctly, after including array[y]+=np.finfo(np.float64).eps.

Thanks @Coding-with-Adam for the report as well as the codepens.
