subplot.m: fix deletion of previous subplots (bug #41128) * subplot: "activepositionproperty" is now "position" for all modes (default, "align" or position) for Matlab compatibility. * subplot: add listener to "x/yaxislocation", "outerposition" and "position" properties * subplot: add appdata "__subplotposition__" and "__subplotouterposition__" to store the default state of the subplot * subplot_position: change signature. Now returns the computed position, outerposition and looseinset all at once * subplot_position: rewritten so that subplot outerpositions don't overlap. * subplot_align: rewritten to accomodate with the new "activepositionproperty". * add tests for deletion

## Set up a plot grid with @var{rows} by @var{cols} subwindows and set the
## current axes for plotting (@code{gca}) to the location given by @var{index}.
##
## If only one numeric argument is supplied, then it must be a three digit
## value specifying the number of rows in digit 1, the number of
## columns in digit 2, and the plot index in digit 3.
##
## The plot index runs row-wise; First, all columns in a row are numbered
## and then the next row is filled.
##
## For example, a plot with 2x3 grid will have plot indices running as follows:
## @tex
## \vskip 10pt
## \hfil\vbox{\offinterlineskip\hrule
## \halign{\vrule#&&\qquad\hfil#\hfil\qquad\vrule\cr
## height13pt&1&2&3\cr height12pt&&&\cr\noalign{\hrule}
## height13pt&4&5&6\cr height12pt&&&\cr\noalign{\hrule}}}
## \hfil
## \vskip 10pt
## @end tex
## @ifnottex
##
## @example
## @group
## +-----+-----+-----+
## |  1  |  2  |  3  |
## +-----+-----+-----+
## |  4  |  5  |  6  |
## +-----+-----+-----+
## @end group
## @end example
##
## @end ifnottex
##
## @var{index} may also be a vector.  In this case, the new axis will enclose
## the grid locations specified.  The first demo illustrates this:
##
## @example
## demo ("subplot", 1)
## @end example
##
## The index of the subplot to make active may also be specified by its axes
## handle, @var{hax}, returned from a previous @code{subplot} command.
##
## If the option @qcode{"align"} is given then the plot boxes of the subwindows
## will align, but this may leave no room for axis tick marks or labels.
##
## If the option @qcode{"replace"} is given then the subplot axis will be
## reset, rather than just switching the current axis for plotting to the
## requested subplot.
##
## The @qcode{"position"} property can be used to exactly position the subplot
## axes within the current figure.  The option @var{pos} is a 4-element vector
## [x, y, width, height] that determines the location and size of the axes.
## The values in @var{pos} are normalized in the range [0,1].
##
## Any property/value pairs are passed directly to the underlying axes object.
##
## If the output @var{hax} is requested, subplot returns the axis handle for
## the subplot.  This is useful for modifying the properties of a subplot
## using @code{set}.
