Description
I want to thank the author first for the excellent tool, corner.py.
It does help me a lot plotting MCMC results.
I usually plot five quantiles: median, 1-sigma, and 2-sigma. So, it is not easy to catch the median immediately when seeing the histograms since all the quantiles are indicated with dashed lines.
It will be great if corner.py provides an option to set the line style of quantiles;
for example, quantiles=[0.16, 0.5, 0.84], q_ls=['dotted', 'dashed', 'dotted']
Thanks in advance for your consideration-

Research direction
Start by locating the quantile plotting path in corner.py and inspect how the requested quantiles are currently drawn. The change is complete when callers can provide a separate line style for each quantile, including the median example described in the issue, and the resulting corner plots use those styles.
