* Network: Prevent crash when dataChanged is triggered during initial setting of options

Fixes #3562.

Options `hidden` and `physics` can emit a `_dataChanged` event within `setOptions()`.
If this happens when setting options during the initialization of the `Network` instance, this leads
to an error thrown, because there is no DataSet instance  connected yet to the instance.

This bug was introduced in `v4.21.0`. Unit tests have been added for this case.
