## Create options struct for optimization functions.
##
## Valid parameters are:
## @itemize @bullet
## @item AutoScaling
##
## @item ComplexEqn
##
## @item FinDiffType
##
## @item FunValCheck
## When enabled, display an error if the objective function returns a complex
## value or NaN@.  Must be set to "on" or "off" [default].
##
## @item GradObj
## When set to "on", the function to be minimized must return a second argument
## which is the gradient, or first derivative, of the function at the point
## @var{x}.  If set to "off" [default], the gradient is computed via finite
## differences.
##
## @item Jacobian
## When set to "on", the function to be minimized must return a second argument
## which is the Jacobian, or first derivative, of the function at the point
## @var{x}.  If set to "off" [default], the Jacobian is computed via finite
## differences.
##
## @item MaxFunEvals
## Maximum number of function evaluations before optimization stops.
## Must be a positive integer.
##
## @item MaxIter
## Maximum number of algorithm iterations before optimization stops.
## Must be a positive integer.
##
## @item OutputFcn
## A user-defined function executed once per algorithm iteration.
##
## @item TolFun
## Termination criterion for the function output.  If the difference in the
## calculated objective function between one algorithm iteration and the next
## is less than @code{TolFun} the optimization stops.  Must be a positive
## scalar.
##
## @item TolX
## Termination criterion for the function input.  If the difference in @var{x},
## the current search point, between one algorithm iteration and the next is
## less than @code{TolX} the optimization stops.  Must be a positive scalar.
