Maps don't work after you make them bigger on realms

This is a duplicate of MCPE-16948, if the map is blanked out but functions correctly (e.g. can be filled again by exploring the same area again).

Dupe of MCPE-18393, MCPE-18764. Partial Dupe of MCPE-16948 (original report seems to work as intended, this bug reported in comments.)

Except when resized in the same location the original map was created, it does not fill in at all. So, it either relocates, or does not work at all. iOS 10, iPhone 6s. Survival mode.

Reopening, this issue deals with the maps not refilling after being zoomed and blanked while the marked duplicate is Wai as itwas about where the center of the map was at.

Also broken in Windows 10 edition on hosted realm.

Steps to reproduce:

1. At spawn, create a map and add compass, and zoom it all the way out using anvil

   • Notice that it does track location and fill in the map

2. Travel outside of the bounds of the 1/16 map, into a new region

3. Create a new 1/1 map with compass

   • Notice that it shows the immediate area properly

4. Zoom it all the way out on anvil, to 1/16

   • Notice tracking no longer works and the map doesn't fill in. The map is completely empty and useless

This makes it impossible to map out areas outside of the area around spawn.

This is only an issue when playing on a realm for my wife and I. We can work around it by setting the GUI to classic and make the map zoomed in a crafting table. I read somewhere that the issue is from the realm servers running Windows 10 version which does not have the anvil recipe for map zooming.

I could have sworn I found that information here, but don't see the comment any more.
