Description: PR summary This adds appropriate cursor icons for RectangleSelector when 1) creating a new selector and 2) moving an existing selector. This is part of #20724. I've held off on implementing more cursor improvements to the widgets because this PR also factors out some logic to enable that. If the approach looks good on first review I could update this PR to add cursors across the widgets where appropriate, or do that in a follow up PR. PR checklist "closes #0000" is in the body of the PR description to link the related issue new and changed code is tested Plotting related features are demonstrated in an example New Features and API Changes are noted with a directive and release note Documentation complies with general and docstring guidelines
