Not entirely convinced that it is a bug. With inward facing ticks, I
wouldn't want the tick labels to move just be cause I set a long tick line.
Tick padding is a separate parameter.

@WeatherGod, it's a bug. The logic is in place to calculate the padding based on tick length and a _base_pad, taking into account whether the ticks are inward, outward, or centered. The calculation just wasn't being updated when the tick length was changed.

eh… Thanks @wafflebot[bot] !
