First point in series has marker animation that can't be disabled

[goodforenergy]

Hey guys, another little issue I found moving between 4.x and 6.x.

Expected behaviour

Disabling marker animation should disable all animation related to markers.

Actual behaviour

Animation is still visible on marker halo on the first point in the series.

Live demo with steps to reproduce

Demo: https://jsfiddle.net/goodforenergy/dqohbuo0/8/

Hover your mouse over the first point, and off to the left. If you resize the window, the issue goes away. Setting chart.animation to false doesn't help.

I made a screencast so it's clear about what I'm talking about.

It's not an issue in 4.x. Didn't try 5.x.

Affected browser(s)

Chrome (only tested).

Hi @goodforenergy

Thank you for reporting and all the details, we really appreciate this :) Hover animations were introduced in v5.0.8, so v4.x was fine.

Workaround:

  chart: {
    events: {
      load: function() {
        this.renderer.globalAnimation = false;
      }
    }
  },

Internal note:
It looks like globalAnimation is undefined when initializing chart, but after resize, it's set to false (see workaround).
