fix(animations): make sure @.disabled works in non-animation components

Note 4.3 only!

Prior to this fix when [@.disabled] was used in a component that
contained zero animation code it wouldn't register properly because the
renderer associated with that component was not an animation renderer.
This patch ensures that it gets registered even when there are no
animations set.
