gr.LinePlot causes the entire Gradio app not responsive if the value=None.

[maxkskhor]

Describe the bug

gr.LinePlot causes the entire Gradio app not responsive if the value=None (which is the default value).

Using value=pd.DataFrame() will solve the issue.

This issue could be problematic for developers who set the LinePlot component to be visible=False with the value defaulted to None, in which case their apps will not be responsive.

It worked in Gradio version 4 but not 5.
