Pull request overview

This PR implements “smart” xlim/ylim override forms in tinyplot, adding support for scalar coverage (ensure a value is included), partial-NA limit pinning, and a "rev(erse)" keyword to reverse automatically computed axis limits (Fixes #616).

Changes:

• Extend xlim/ylim parsing to support scalar inputs, length-2 partial NA, and "rev(erse)" keyword reversal.
• Plumb new rev_x/rev_y flags through settings, limit computation, flip handling, and facet drawing (including free-scale facets).
• Add snapshot tests and documentation/NEWS updates describing the new limit behaviors.
