Bug summary
NavigationToolbar2Tk._Spacer sets the spacer size to 18p and the padx to 3p, but _rescale sets them to 22p and 4p respectively.
Code for reproduction
# in ipython, tk backend
from pylab import *
plot(); show()
# In theory this should be triggered upon moving the window
# to a monitor with a different dpi, which I don't have,
# but one can also call _rescale manually
gcf().canvas.toolbar._rescale()
Actual outcome
The spacer becomes larger and with more space around it.
Expected outcome
No change to spacer size(?)
Additional information
I stumbled upon this while considering whether we could entirely get rid of _Spacer() and just add a RIDGE Frame instead and rely on _rescale() to set the size of the spacer as needed; the idea being to avoid the call to a private method in the https://matplotlib.org/stable/gallery/user_interfaces/mplcvd.html example while also not adding a new method for adding spacers.
