Make kiwisolver an optional dependency? #10386

Description

@dstansby

#9082 introduced a nice new geometry manager, but now installing Matplotlib requires installing kiwisolver. Would it be possible to make this an optional dependency that is only needed for doing constrained layout stuff (especially since the layout stuff is experimental at the moment)?
