[issue45357] Idle does not check user config for extention configuration

[Terry J. Reedy]

I am puzzled by your report. As explained in the top of idlelib/confix-extensions.def, the options for four features are still defined there for compatibility reasons and user changes to those option *are* stored in ~/.idlerc/config-extensions.cfg and read on startup.  At least on Windows with 3.9 and 3.11. I also tested changing options for test extension zzdummy and that works also.  For instance, click enable, exit dialog, exit IDLE, reload, edit something, select Format, and the z options are listed.  The default config is not changed.  What tests did you run?
