Fixes issue reported by @jjgao:
"Do you why the log scale checkbox is not checked but y-axis is log2? https://bit.ly/3k4iYTR"
This issue was due to the fact that some rna_seq profiles now have small negative values as a result of batch-correction. The solution is that we will not disable the log-scale checkbox for rna_seq profiles even if they have negative values. In addition, log scale rendering for mrna profiles now sets negative values to 0, and then renders log2(value+1)
