After discussions with Celia and Tom, I'm going to close this PR for now. This does provide a small improvement, but when my recent changes to jdaviz are pulled in, the small improvement isn't as noticeable as in the demo. This will be good to keep in our back pocket for later |

Limit the number of repeated calls made to update the
_targetand_fovtraitletsWhy is this needed?
When aladin-lite updates its view, it does so with a smooth animation which updates the fov and target at intervals between the starting and final values to create a smooth animation. This causes issues for attached listeners on the ipyaladin traitlets that are updates as they get triggered for every intermediary value. By limiting to just updating on the final values we can avoid these extra calls.
This is particularly important for reducing the jitter between ipyaladin and imviz when syncing as see in the demo below. As you can see in the demo, its still not perfect, but its greatly improved thanks to this change.
