## Create a uibuttongroup object and return a handle to it.
##
## uibuttongroups are used to create group uicontrols.
##
## If @var{parent} is omitted then a uibuttongroup for the current figure is
## created.  If no figure is available, a new figure is created first.
##
## If @var{parent} is given then a uibuttongroup relative to @var{parent} is
## created.
##
## Any provided property value pairs will override the default values of the
## created uibuttongroup object.
##
## Uibuttongroup properties are documented at @ref{Uibuttongroup Properties}.
##
## Examples:
##
## @example
## @group
## % create figure and panel on it
## f = figure;
## % create a button group
## gp = uibuttongroup (f, "Position", [ 0 0.5 1 1])
## % create a buttons in the group
## b1 = uicontrol (gp, "style", "radiobutton", ...
##                 "string", "Choice 1", ...
##                 "Position", [ 10 150 100 50 ]);
## b2 = uicontrol (gp, "style", "radiobutton", ...
##                 "string", "Choice 2", ...
##                 "Position", [ 10 50 100 30 ]);
## % create a button not in the group
## b3 = uicontrol (f, "style", "radiobutton", ...
##                 "string", "Not in the group", ...
##                 "Position", [ 10 50 100 50 ]);
