PR summary

This pr moves the rcParams listing on https://matplotlib.org/devdocs/users/index.html into a dropdown b/c currently I think it swamps the page but I wanted to keep the ease of browsing through the listings. This is the change:

going back and forth if I wanna change the dropdown header color to the background color or keep it to flag it's a dropdown.

Id rather remove the subsections here (toctree depth 1). Opening the dropdown and clicking on a subsection title is two clicks. Just like clicking the section title and selecting the subsection from the „on this page“ menu on the right of the page.

A dropdown is thus not faster to navigate but it adds visual clutter.

Was more so folks can skim the params w/o having to go to the new page.
