findobj.m: Also report properties with aliased names (bug #62612). * findobj.m: Call "__get__" which returns visible and hidden properties of a graphics object rather than "get" which only returns visible properties.

## Find graphics objects with specified properties.
##
## When called without arguments, return all graphic objects beginning with the
## root object (0) and including all of its descendants.
##
## The simplest form for narrowing the results is
##
## @example
## findobj (@var{prop_name}, @var{prop_value})
## @end example
##
## @noindent
## which returns the handles of all objects which have a property named
## @var{prop_name} that has the value @var{prop_value}.  If multiple
## property/value pairs are specified then only objects meeting all of the
## conditions (equivalent to @code{-and}) are returned.
##
## The search can be limited to a particular set of objects and their
## descendants, by passing a handle or set of handles @var{hlist} as the first
## argument.
##
## The depth of the object hierarchy to search can be limited with the
## @qcode{"-depth"} argument.  An example of searching through only three
## generations of children is:
##
## @example
## findobj (@var{hlist}, "-depth", 3, @var{prop_name}, @var{prop_value})
## @end example
##
## Specifying a depth @var{d} of 0 limits the search to the set of objects
## passed in @var{hlist}.  A depth of 0 is also equivalent to the
## @qcode{"flat"} argument.  The default depth value is @code{Inf} which
## includes all descendants.
##
## A specified logical operator may be used between @var{prop_name},
## @var{prop_value} pairs.  The supported logical operators are:
## @qcode{"-and"}, @qcode{"-or"}, @qcode{"-xor"}, @qcode{"-not"}.  Example code
## to locate all figure and axes objects is
##
## @example
## findobj ("type", "figure", "-or", "type", "axes")
## @end example
##
## Objects may also be matched by comparing a regular expression to the
## property values, where property values that match
## @code{regexp (@var{prop_value}, @var{pattern})} are returned.
##
## Finally, objects which have a property name can be found with the
## @qcode{"-property"} option.  For example, code to locate objects with a
## @qcode{"meshstyle"} property is
##
## @example
## findobj ("-property", "meshstyle")
## @end example
##
## Implementation Note: The search only includes objects with visible
## handles (@w{HandleVisibility} = @qcode{"on"}).
## @xref{XREFfindall,,@code{findall}}, to search for all objects including
## hidden ones.
