MNT: Remove scalarmappable private update attributes

The updates to scalar mappable would only take effect if the
array was updated. This meant that updating the vmin/vmax of
the sm's norm would not be propagated to the drawn artists. This
update removes the update checks from scalar mappable to calculate
the colors regardless of updates to the array.

+ScalarMappable update checkers
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+``ScalarMappable.update_dict``, ``ScalarMappable.add_checker()``, and
+``ScalarMappable.check_update()`` have been removed. A callback can
+be registered in ``ScalarMappable.callbacksSM`` to be notified of updates.
