Hi!

matlab has completely changed the syntax of the nargoutchk function. It used
to return a struct with the error message if the number of arguments was
incorrect (like nargchk which matlab has deprecated). Now it actually returns
an error (like matlab's new narginchk).

I attempted to keep compatibility with the old code so it's now checking
nargin and nargout to make an educated guess at what syntax the caller is
expecting. If you're planning on removing the old syntax as well, maybe it
could also give a warning if the old syntax is being used.

Anyway, hope it's useful to someone.
