Update figure graphics object for Matlab compatibility. * NEWS.8.md: Announce addition of "innerposition" and "windowstate" properties to figure objects. Announce change in default for "dockcontrols" property to "on". * graphics.in.h (figure::properties::get_innerposition, figure::properties::set_innerposition): New functions to alias "innerposition" property to "position" property. * graphics.in.h (BEGIN_PROPERTIES (figure)): Change "dockcontrols" default to "on". Re-order "pointer" property to show the default "arrow" as the first entry. Add new property "windowstate".
