Description

Consider a hidden button (IsVisible = false) with an ImageSource. When this button is made visible, the button doesn't render correctly and doesn't respond to user taps.

Observations

• The bug is iOS only, does not appear on Android.
• It looks like this bug was introduced in the latest 8.0-rc.2.9530. It worked fine before in MAUI
• There is a workaround. Adding a MinimumWidthRequest and MinimumHeightRequest seems to work. See also attached repro project.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Make sure you are on the latest maui rc2 (8.0-rc.2.9530).
2. Create new MAUI app
3. Add a button named Btn1 with an ImageSource and IsVisible = false
4. Add a second button with a clicked event handler
5. In the clicked event handler set the IsVisible of Btn1 to true.
6. Observe the bug that Btn doesn't respond to user taps, and doesn't render the image.
