hotfix for rescale issues on web

[felix-ht]

added a hotfix for #795 as #889 did not fix the issue. This still feels quite sloppy - however it seems like the best option we have for now.

I also deleted some unused code - and with it an api that the controller should have never exposed in the first place.

I've been waiting for a fix for the resize since December. This looks promising - any idea when a new release will be cut and available via normal channels?

Thanks for your work on this!

@treehousetim hard to say. You can fork this repo tho and directly use that one to get all the latest changes right away. So you still have some control over when the version you put into your release.

Thanks @felix-ht I spoke too soon and was still seeing some issues too. Excited to try this new fix when it is released!

i did some more testing and there still are some issues. These mostly seem happen if a existing map is reinserted into the widget tree. (Going to another page and returning to the map with a pop)

In this case the hotfix does not work, as the style is not reloaded.

[lukemadera]

Yeah, that checks out with what I'm seeing. Can we add a manual hook into the resize function for now at least to give us control to force resize it? May not be the best solution, but we need a fix ASAP and a timeout to check and resize is far better than a mini map that's not usable.

@lukemadera a quick hack would be to just have two styles that are essentially the same but have different mapbox URIs
With this you could force a reload - but certainly quite hacky

Note that this is of high priority for me as well an I will try to have a full fix soon
