Documented in plot_image_grid

#'@title Plot Image Grid
#'
#'@description Displays the image in the current device.
#'
#'@param input_list List of 3-layer RGB/4-layer RGBA array, `rayimg` class, or image filenames.
#'@param dim Default `c(1,1)`. Width by height of output grid.
#'@param asp Default `1`. Aspect ratio of the pixels(s). For example, an aspect ratio of `4/3` will
#'slightly widen the image. This can also be a vector the same length of
#'`input_list` to specify an aspect ratio for each image in the grid.
#'@param draw_grid Default `FALSE`. If `TRUE`, this will draw a grid in the background to help
#'disambiguate the actual image from the device (helpful if the image background is the same as the
#'device's background).
#'@param gp A `grid::gpar()` object to include for the grid viewport displaying the image.
