fix(paginator): not emitting page event when pageIndex, pageSize or length changes

Currently the paginator won't fire the `page` event if it's `pageIndex`, `length` or `pageSize` change, which means that the associated table won't be able to react. These changes emit the event if the values change.

Fixes #12583.
