Ink on InkCanvas flashes when Ink Canvas (or parent control) is enabled or disabled

[TheJoeFin]

Describe the bug

When there is ink on an InkCanvas and the parent control IsEnabled value is changed the ink flashes.

Steps to reproduce the bug

Issue is visible in my app Ink Calendar and Journal.

1. Switch between views (which enables and disables the parent flipview)
2. Tap the lock symbol (also enables and disables the parent flipview)

Notice flashing ink.

Expected behavior

Ink once loaded should flash when the parent control IsEnabled changes.
