posibility of a 2.3.2 release with less strict d3-interpolate version dependency

[evansrobert]

Hi, @archmoj,

Issue Description

I noticed that a vulnerability is introduced in [email protected]:
Vulnerability SNYK-JS-D3COLOR-1076592 affects package d3-color (versions:<3.0.0): https://snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-JS-D3COLOR-1076592
The above vulnerable package is referenced by [email protected] via:
[email protected] ➔ [email protected] ➔ [email protected]

Since [email protected] (10,096 downloads per week) is referenced by 38 downstream projects (e.g., jupyterlab-plotly 5.1.0 (latest version), @interpretml/interpret-inline 0.2.6 (latest version), @deephaven/code-studio 0.2.1 (latest version), @intermix-dashboard/victory 0.7.0 (latest version), @deephaven/chart 0.2.1 (latest version)), the vulnerability SNYK-JS-D3COLOR-1076592 can be propagated into these downstream projects and expose security threats to them via the following package dependency paths:
(1)[email protected] ➔ [email protected] ➔ [email protected] ➔ [email protected]
(2)@interpretml/[email protected] ➔ [email protected] ➔ [email protected] ➔ [email protected]
......

If [email protected].* removes the vulnerable package from the above version, then its fixed version can help downstream users decrease their pain.

Given the large number of downstream users, could you help update your package to remove the vulnerability from [email protected] ?

Fixing suggestions

In [email protected], maybe you can kindly try to perform the following upgrade :
d3-interpolate ^1.4.0 ➔ ^3.0.0;

Note:
[email protected](>=3.0.0) directly depends on [email protected] which has fixed the vulnerability SNYK-JS-D3COLOR-1076592.
Of course, you are welcome to share other ways to resolve the issue.

Thank you for your attention to this issue.

Best regards,
^_^

Please note that there was no version change in the following packages between plotly.js v1.58.4 and plotly.js v2.3.1:

└─┬ [email protected]
  └── [email protected] 

Also noting that d3-interpolat@v2 dropped support for IE, upgrading may not be a feasible choice at this point.
What about fixing the issue in d3-interpolate v1?
