No strict ticks found for exponentially small limits

[ffreyer]

While testing for MakieOrg/Makie.jl#3681 I noticed that tick finding has problems with small numbers, starting around PlotUtils.optimize_ticks(1e-17, 10e-17). It would be nice if we could push this a bit further.

For large values even PlotUtils.optimize_ticks(1e200, 10e200) still works.

This is a particular issue in GeoMakie when zooming in to small areas on geographic plots!

I think an easy workaround would be to scale the inputs and then scale back after.
Or pass a bigger number type. Though I'm not sure that function is written generic enough for that.

I don't see how we could alter the function to work with values below machine epsilon for Float64 input TBH.
