Added documentation to gtksizegroup.sgml explaining what happens with height-for-width widgets.
When grouping height-for-width trading widgets (wrapping labels for instance)
vertically; the height for the minimum width will always be used for the entire
group... this patch warns about this in the docs.

+Note that only non-contextual sizes of every widget are ever consulted
+by size groups (since size groups have no knowledge of what size a widget
+will be allocated in one dimension, it cannot derive how much height
+a widget will receive for a given width). When grouping widgets that
+trade height for width in mode %GTK_SIZE_GROUP_VERTICAL or %GTK_SIZE_GROUP_BOTH:
+the height for the minimum width will be the requested height for all
+widgets in the group.
