strip.switch.pad.* modifies plot when facet labels are not switched, if strip.placement = "outside"

[davidhodge931]

I think that strip.switch.pad.grid or strip.switch.pad.wrap are intended to only modify the plot where facet labels are switched.

However if strip.placement = "outside", the position of the labels is modifed by strip.switch.pad.*

library(tidyverse)
library(palmerpenguins)

p <- penguins  %>% 
  ggplot() +
  geom_point(aes(flipper_length_mm, body_mass_g)) +
  facet_grid(vars(sex), vars(species)) 

p

p +
  theme(strip.placement = "outside") +
  theme(strip.switch.pad.grid = unit(7.5, "pt"))

Hey David, it seems that this behaviour has changed since ggplot2 3.4.0, most likely in #4669.
