[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48807] gsvd function needs BIST tests updated

[Carnë Draug]

Follow-up Comment #12, bug #48807 (project octave):

Three issues with this m-file wrapper:

1. the function still does not work properly if matrices are of class single
(it's converting to double behind the scenes and returning the double).
2. there is still no tests to check that this fix actually fixes the issue.
3. the right fix would be in gsvd c++ class. If we delay the fix for 4.4, we
will then have to deal with backwards compatibility on the gsvd class.

No one has been asking for this function, we just thought it would be a quick
exercise for Barbara during GSOC so I don't think there's a big issue with
delaying it until release 4.4 when it's done properly.

Now that default was merged into stable, I'm revertinf the m-file change on
stable, merge that to default, and then removed gsvd completely for the 4.2
release.
