wrap_ggplot_grob

A gtable as produced by <code><a rd-options="ggplot2:ggplotGrob" href="/link/ggplot2%3A%3AggplotGrob()?package=patchwork&version=0.0.1&to=ggplot2%3AggplotGrob" data-mini-rdoc="ggplot2:ggplotGrob::ggplot2::ggplotGrob()">ggplot2::ggplotGrob()</a></code>

This function converts a gtable, as produced by <code><a rd-options="ggplot2:ggplotGrob" href="/link/ggplot2%3A%3AggplotGrob()?package=patchwork&version=0.0.1&to=ggplot2%3AggplotGrob" data-mini-rdoc="ggplot2:ggplotGrob::ggplot2::ggplotGrob()">ggplot2::ggplotGrob()</a></code> and
makes it ready to be added to a patchwork assemble. In contrast to passing
the gtable to <code><a rd-options="=wrap_elements" href="/link/wrap_elements()?package=patchwork&version=0.0.1&to=%3Dwrap_elements" data-mini-rdoc="=wrap_elements::wrap_elements()">wrap_elements()</a></code>, <code>wrap_ggplot_grob()</code> ensures proper
alignment as expected. On the other hand major restructuring of the gtable
will result in an object that doesn't work properly with
<code>wrap_ggplot_grob()</code>.

The 'ggplot2' package provides a strong API for sequentially
building up a plot, but does not concern itself with composition of multiple
plots. 'patchwork' is a package that expands the API to allow for
arbitrarily complex composition of plots by providing mathmatical operators
for combining multiple plots. Other packages that addresses this need (but
with a different approach) are 'gridExtra' and 'cowplot'.
