Description of expected behavior and the observed behavior

When sending multiple notifications within the duration time of previous notification, I expect to see all notifications, one below another, vanishing one after the other.

What I get with Panel 1.5.4 is seeing multiple copies of the last notification (type and the message).

This is a regression, because I remember not having this problem before updating Panel. I thing that Panel 1.5.3 did not have this issue.

Complete, minimal, self-contained example code that reproduces the issue

import panel as pn

pn.extension(
    notifications=True,
)
pn.state.notifications.position = 'top-center'


def onload_callback() -> None:
    pn.state.notifications.warning("Warning", duration=0)
    pn.state.notifications.info("Info", duration=0)


pn.state.onload(onload_callback)
pn.pane.Markdown("# Hello world").servable()

Screenshots or screencasts of the bug in action

I would expect to see warning notification with the "Warning" message above info notification with "Info" message, instead of seeing info notification with "Info" message twice.

It happens somewhere between 1.3.8 and 1.4.0.

Running git diff v1.3.8 v1.4.0 panel/io/notifications.py panel/io/state.py panel/config.py and checking the difference, it looks like it is caused by #6533.
