#' Multiple plot function
#'
#' ggplot objects can be passed in ..., or to plotlist (as a list of ggplot objects)
#' - cols:   Number of columns in layout
#' - layout: A matrix specifying the layout. If present, 'cols' is ignored.
#'
#' If the layout is something like matrix(c(1,2,3,3), nrow=2, byrow=TRUE),
#' then plot 1 will go in the upper left, 2 will go in the upper right, and
#' 3 will go all the way across the bottom.
#'
#' @param ... plots to draw
#' @param plotlist list of plots to draw
#' @param cols number of columns
#' @param layout matrix with layout specifications
#' @param panelnames array of panel names (default LETTERS)
#' @param panelnames.size size of panel names (default 16)
#' @return NULL
