Description
Introduce Grid that enables users to group items by value of some properties. For instance, Smart GWT has such a component:
- http://www.smartclient.com/smartgwt/showcase/#grid_grouping_multi
- http://www.smartclient.com/smartgwt/showcase/#grid_grouping_custom
This functionality cannot be emulated using TreeGrid or TreeTable since there are multiple hierarchical columns that are configured by users at runtime.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the issue and its two Smart GWT grouping examples. Determine the required runtime-configurable grouping behavior and API for the Grid component, including support for multiple hierarchical columns. Done means the proposed Grid functionality can group items by selected property values and its behavior is covered by an agreed design and tests.
