Added a new padding function to transforms.py, called it in backend_bases, and updated documentation where pad_inches shows up

PR summary

Solution for#11764, allowing pad_inches to be set for each border when saving a figure.

• Why is this change necessary?
  Difficult to get compact but suitably bounding borders in savefig with extra artists in some cases
• What problem does it solve?
  E.g. a plot with broken axes made with subfigures and diagonal lines indicating the break is hard to bound correctly. This adds a crude but simple way to modify the bounding box as needed.
• What is the reasoning for this implementation?
  Seems like the simplest way to do it.
