[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #64995] implement height and width as aliases for rows and columns for matlab compatibility

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug#64995 (group octave):

We have the following aliases now (second argument to DEFALIAS is the real
function).  The "help name_of_alias" returns the docstring for the real
function.  I'm not sure how many of those docstrings note that there is an
alias.  I guess it doesn't hurt, but I don't see it as necessary.

libinterp/corefcn/data.cc:DEFALIAS (inf, Inf);
