Problem
Currently, we can only set a uniform axes.labelpad, which applies the same padding for both the x-axis and y-axis labels.
I am aware that it is possible to adjust the labelpad for the x and y labels independently using set_xlabel(..., labelpad=x_pad) and set_ylabel(..., labelpad=y_pad) in plotting code. However, would it be better to add separate options in rcParams to set the padding for x and y labels independently, similar to how xtick.major.pad and ytick.major.pad work?
Proposed solution
