function out = prepareArgs(args)
% Convert a struct into a name/value cell array for use by process_options
%
% Prepare varargin args for process_options by converting a struct in args{1}
% into a name/value pair cell array. If args{1} is not a struct, args
% is left unchanged.
% Example:
% opts.maxIter = 100;
% opts.verbose = true;
% foo(opts)
% 
% This is equivalent to calling 
% foo('maxiter', 100, 'verbose', true)
