Implemented post_process in Altair based components

Feature

I implemented post_process for Altair based components. And I just tested it out on the Boltzmann Wealth Model, with the following code:

def post_process(chart: alt.Chart) -> alt.Chart:
    return (
        chart
        .configure_legend(
            titleFontSize=14,  
            labelFontSize=12
        )
        .properties(title="Agent Wealth Distribution")
        .configure_view(
            stroke="black",
            strokeWidth=1
        )
    )

Thanks @sanika-n!

Could you update the docstrings to ensure the API accurately reflects the change (~ Line 33) https://mesa.readthedocs.io/stable/apis/visualization.html#module-mesa.visualization.components.altair_components

And although this passes the tests check, it would be good to add a test to post process in the solara_viz test

mesa/tests/test_solara_viz.py

Looks good to me.
