MinDEllipsoid:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Computes the minimum distance between two ellipsoids.
   Performs an SVD of the ellipsoid matrix.

   Since version 7.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Form:
   [d,x1,x2,iter,di,x1i,x2i,iter] = MinDEllipsoid(P1,xc1,P2,xc2);
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
