Problem

We got a shiny new layout engine module in https://matplotlib.org/devdocs/api/layout_engine_api.html in 3.6 c/0 of #20426 but there's no tutorial for it. I figure it's one of those things where if you know how to write a layout engine then the api docs are fine, but honestly I think a tutorial would at the least be useful for making it more discoverable and showing off its usability and how flexible it is.

Suggested improvement

A tutorial, or minimally an example, of making a custom layout engine. To start, something in the style of custom projections or custom units
