Description

Bug report

Bug summary
Calls to set_sketch_params() are ignored by the PGF backend and do not have any influence in the resulting pgf or pdf file.

Code for reproduction

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import matplotlib as mpl
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
mpl.use("pgf")

mpl.rcParams.update({
    'font.family': 'serif',
    'text.usetex': True,
    'pgf.rcfonts': False,
    'pgf.preamble': [ 
            # enable this when using PGF backend with pdf output:
            #r"\usepackage{pgf}",
            #r"\usepgfmodule{decorations}",
            #r"\usepgflibrary{decorations.pathmorphing}",
        ],
})

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(range(10))

ax.spines["bottom"].set_sketch_params(scale=5, length=10, randomness=42)

fig.savefig(f"foo.pgf")
#fig.savefig(f"foo.pdf")

Actual outcome

Expected outcome
