`Figure.set_figwidth` and `Figure.set_figheight` default forward to True
------------------------------------------------------------------------

`matplotlib.Figure.set_figwidth` and `matplotlib.Figure.set_figheight`
had the kwarg `forward=False`
by default, but `Figure.set_size_inches` now defaults to `forward=True`.
This makes these functions conistent.
