  @brief Creates a dataset with all metadata libraries
  @details Will only show the libraries to which a user has the requisite
    metadata access.
 
  @param [out] outds= (work.mm_getlibs)
    The library.dataset to create that contains the list of libraries
 
  @returns outds  dataset containing all groups in a column named "metagroup"
    (defaults to work.mm_getlibs). The following columns are provided:
    - LibraryId
    - LibraryName
    - LibraryRef
    - Engine
 
  @warning The following filenames are created and then de-assigned:
 
      filename sxlemap clear;
      filename response clear;
      libname _XML_ clear;
 
  @version 9.2
