    FindMatlab: Rewrite module and provide a usage API
    
    Implement a brand new FindMatlab module:
    
    - Add support for versions and components.
    - Find Matlab and its version in a more precise and multiplatform way.
    - Add API to create a new mex extension with documentation.
    - Add API to add matlab unit tests (with or without the unit test framework).
    - Find as much as possible based on a single Matlab_ROOT_DIR cache entry
      and allow the user to change it to re-find everything.

+FindMatlab-rewrite
+------------------
+
+* The :module:`FindMatlab` module was completely rewritten.  It learned
+  about versions and components and to find Matlab in a more precise and
+  multiplatform way.  The module now offers APIs to create mex extensions,
+  documentation, and unit tests.

 # FindMatlab
 # ----------
 #
-# this module looks for Matlab
+# Finds Matlab installations and provides Matlab tools and libraries to cmake.
 #
-# Defines:
+# This package first intention is to find the libraries associated with Matlab
+# in order to be able to build Matlab extensions (mex files). It can also be
+# used:
 #
-# ::
+# * run specific commands in Matlab
+# * declare Matlab unit test
+# * retrieve various information from Matlab (mex extensions, versions and
+#   release queries, ...)
 #
-#   MATLAB_INCLUDE_DIR: include path for mex.h, engine.h
-#   MATLAB_LIBRARIES:   required libraries: libmex, etc
-#   MATLAB_MEX_LIBRARY: path to libmex.lib
-#   MATLAB_MX_LIBRARY:  path to libmx.lib
-#   MATLAB_ENG_LIBRARY: path to libeng.lib
+# The module supports the following components:
+#
+# * ``MX_LIBRARY`` and ``ENG_LIBRARY`` respectively the MX and ENG libraries of
+#   Matlab
+# * ``MAIN_PROGRAM`` the Matlab binary program.
+#
+# .. note::
+#
+#   The version given to the :command:`find_package` directive is the Matlab
+#   **version**, which should not be confused with the Matlab *release* name
+#   (eg. `R2014`).
+#   The :command:`matlab_get_version_from_release_name` and
+#   :command:`matlab_get_release_name_from_version` allow a mapping
+#   from the release name to the version.
+#
+# The variable :variable:`Matlab_ROOT_DIR` may be specified in order to give
+# the path of the desired Matlab version. Otherwise, the behaviour is platform
+# specific:
+#
+# * Windows: The installed versions of Matlab are retrieved from the
+#   Windows registry
+# * OS X: The installed versions of Matlab are given by the MATLAB
+#   paths in ``/Application``. If no such application is found, it falls back
+#   to the one that might be accessible from the PATH.
+# * Unix: The desired Matlab should be accessible from the PATH.
+#
+# Additional information is provided when :variable:`MATLAB_FIND_DEBUG` is set.
+# When a Matlab binary is found automatically and the ``MATLAB_VERSION``
+# is not given, the version is queried from Matlab directly.
+# On Windows, it can make a window running Matlab appear.
+#
+# The mapping of the release names and the version of Matlab is performed by
+# defining pairs (name, version).  The variable
+# :variable:`MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS` may be provided before the call to
+# the :command:`find_package` in order to handle additional versions.
+#
+# A Matlab scripts can be added to the set of tests using the
+# :command:`matlab_add_unit_test`. By default, the Matlab unit test framework
+# will be used (>= 2013a) to run this script, but regular ``.m`` files
+# returning an exit code can be used as well (0 indicating a success).
+#
+# Module Input Variables
+# ----------------------
+#
+# Users or projects may set the following variables to configure the module
+# behaviour:
+#
+# :variable:`Matlab_ROOT_DIR`
+#   the root of the Matlab installation.
+# :variable:`MATLAB_FIND_DEBUG`
+#   outputs debug information
+# :variable:`MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS`
+#   additional versions of Matlab for the automatic retrieval of the installed
+#   versions.
+#
+# Variables defined by the module
+# -------------------------------
+#
+# Result variables
+# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+#
+# ``Matlab_FOUND``
+#   ``TRUE`` if the Matlab installation is found, ``FALSE``
+#   otherwise. All variable below are defined if Matlab is found.
+# ``Matlab_ROOT_DIR``
+#   the final root of the Matlab installation determined by the FindMatlab
+#   module.
+# ``Matlab_MAIN_PROGRAM``
+#   the Matlab binary program. Available only if the component ``MAIN_PROGRAM``
+#   is given in the :command:`find_package` directive.
+# ``Matlab_INCLUDE_DIRS``
+#  the path of the Matlab libraries headers
+# ``Matlab_MEX_LIBRARY``
+#   library for mex, always available.
+# ``Matlab_MX_LIBRARY``
+#   mx library of Matlab (arrays). Available only if the component
+#   ``MX_LIBRARY`` has been requested.
+# ``Matlab_ENG_LIBRARY``
+#   Matlab engine library. Available only if the component ``ENG_LIBRARY``
+#   is requested.
+# ``Matlab_LIBRARIES``
+#   the whole set of libraries of Matlab
+# ``Matlab_MEX_COMPILER``
+#   the mex compiler of Matlab. Currently not used.
+#   Available only if the component ``MEX_COMPILER`` is asked
+#
+# Cached variables
+# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+#
+# ``Matlab_MEX_EXTENSION``
+#   the extension of the mex files for the current platform (given by Matlab).
+# ``Matlab_ROOT_DIR``
+#   the location of the root of the Matlab installation found. If this value
+#   is changed by the user, the result variables are recomputed.
+#
+# Provided macros
+# ---------------
+#
+# :command:`matlab_get_version_from_release_name`
+#   returns the version from the release name
+# :command:`matlab_get_release_name_from_version`
+#   returns the release name from the Matlab version
+#
+# Provided functions
+# ------------------
+#
+# :command:`matlab_add_mex`
+#   adds a target compiling a MEX file.
+# :command:`matlab_add_unit_test`
+#   adds a Matlab unit test file as a test to the project.
+# :command:`matlab_extract_all_installed_versions_from_registry`
+#   parses the registry for all Matlab versions. Available on Windows only.
+#   The part of the registry parsed is dependent on the host processor
+# :command:`matlab_get_all_valid_matlab_roots_from_registry`
+#   returns all the possible Matlab paths, according to a previously
+#   given list. Only the existing/accessible paths are kept. This is mainly
+#   useful for the searching all possible Matlab installation.
+# :command:`matlab_get_mex_suffix`
+#   returns the suffix to be used for the mex files
+#   (platform/architecture dependant)
+# :command:`matlab_get_version_from_matlab_run`
+#   returns the version of Matlab, given the full directory of the Matlab program.
+#
+#
+# Known issues
+# ------------
+#
+# **Symbol clash in a MEX target**
+#   By default, every symbols inside a MEX
+#   file defined with the command :command:`matlab_add_mex` have hidden
+#   visibility, except for the entry point. This is the default behaviour of
+#   the MEX compiler, which lowers the risk of symbol collision between the
+#   libraries shipped with Matlab, and the libraries to which the MEX file is
+#   linking to. This is also the default on Windows platforms.
+#
+#   However, this is not sufficient in certain case, where for instance your
+#   MEX file is linking against libraries that are already loaded by Matlab,
+#   even if those libraries have different SONAMES.
+#   A possible solution is to hide the symbols of the libraries to which the
+#   MEX target is linking to. This can be achieved in GNU GCC compilers with
+#   the linker option ``-Wl,--exclude-libs,ALL``.
+#
+# **Tests using GPU resources**
+#   in case your MEX file is using the GPU and
+#   in order to be able to run unit tests on this MEX file, the GPU resources
+#   should be properly released by Matlab. A possible solution is to make
+#   Matlab aware of the use of the GPU resources in the session, which can be
+#   performed by a command such as ``D = gpuDevice()`` at the beginning of
+#   the test script (or via a fixture).
+#
+#
+# Reference
+# --------------
+#
+# .. variable:: Matlab_ROOT_DIR
+#
+#    The root folder of the Matlab installation. If set before the call to
+#    :command:`find_package`, the module will look for the components in that
+#    path. If not set, then an automatic search of Matlab
+#    will be performed. If set, it should point to a valid version of Matlab.
+#
+# .. variable:: MATLAB_FIND_DEBUG
+#
+#    If set, the lookup of Matlab and the intermediate configuration steps are
+#    outputted to the console.
+#
+# .. variable:: MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS
+#
+#   If set, specifies additional versions of Matlab that may be looked for.
+#   The variable should be a list of strings, organised by pairs of release
+#   name and versions, such as follows::
+#
+#     set(MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS
+#         "release_name1=corresponding_version1"
+#         "release_name2=corresponding_version2"
+#         ...
+#         )
+#
+#   Example::
+#
+#     set(MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS
+#         "R2013b=8.2"
+#         "R2013a=8.1"
+#         "R2012b=8.0")
+#
+#   The order of entries in this list matters when several versions of
+#   Matlab are installed. The priority is set according to the ordering in
+#   this list.
