[MNT]: Handling of tools defaults #31027
Description
Summary
Separating out the discussion from #31020 (review)
This is not high-priority, but worth a thought on cleaning up.
Proposed fix
Decide whether:
- they stay as changed in DOC: Fix doc builds with Sphinx 9 #31020 (global default that could be user-overwritten)
- make private
- make constant (
TOOL_DEFAULTS) - we need documentation for the default values

@timhoffm I'd like to work on this. I think making them constants (DEFAULT_TOOLBAR_TOOLS etc.) makes the most sense since it follows Python conventions and makes it clear these shouldn't be modified directly. Happy to implement whichever approach you prefer though.

@Shrivadhu thanks for your interest. However, I currently don't have the time and priority to decide on the direction, so this is not actionable right now.
