Details:

This has already been discussed in the past and is a known incompatibility
between Octave's Qt toolkit and Matlab. The current figure toolbar is
implemented in C++ and as such it is not only incompatible with Matlab, but
also not handy when it comes to modifying it.

I attached a preliminary cset that switches to
uitoolbar/uitoggletool/uipushtool for the implementation of the default
toolbar. ATM there are no significant differences with the current toolbar,
just a few additions:
* New button section for New, Open, Save and Save as,
* Use standard icons from the (linux) desktop when available. For this I added
a new "__named_icon__" property to ui(toggle/push)tool, so that we don't have
to store cdata resources in each button.

I have added some Tango icons for zoom-in/out/original and designed new ones
for pan and rotate (which I am not so proud about, don't hesitate to rework).
