Set multiple properties at once.

a.set(a=A, b=B, c=C)

is equivalent to

a.set_a(A)
a.set_b(B)
a.set_c(C)

In addition to the full property names, aliases are also supported, e.g. set(lw=2) is equivalent to set(linewidth=2), but it is an error to pass both simultaneously.

The order of the individual setter calls matches the order of parameters in set(). However, most properties do not depend on each other so that order is rarely relevant.
