This supports the dummy entry 'regular' for 'custom' fontset mathtext settings 'mathtext.it', 'mathtext.rm', etc. When detected then the currently active font is selected rather than a global default font. It also sets 'mathtext.default' to 'it'. Previously this would result in math text resisting changes to the global font but now this simply italices the current font and uses it for math.

Resolves #318. Now
mathtext.defaultis set to'it'and I've changed themathtext.it,mathtext.bf,mathtext.rm, andmathtext.sffrom'sans'to'regular'.Note the
'regular'string is a stand-in that tells matplotlib to use the current font. For example,'regular:italic'applies italics to the current font. This is an improvement on previous behavior, in which only the unmodified (non-bold, non-italic) global font could be used for custom math text.I've also added the Fira Sans, Noto Serif, and Source Serif Pro fonts. Previously I thought Fira Sans was redundant, but this is not the case, because Fira Math is not available in italics. Also, the Noto and Source serif fonts are nice companions for their sans-serif counterparts already included in proplot.
Here is the result of the demo function on reeadthedocs (note the italicezed math text):
