Title:
  Guideline/documentation has no layout recommendation for buttons in
  dialogs

Bug description:
  Reading the current documentation there is no real guidance on how to
  layout buttons in Dialogs.

  The "design vision" section 4. [1] mentions "Positive actions always
  go on the right, negative on the left", which suggests an horizontal
  alignment for the buttons, but the building blocks section [2] doesn't
  mention the topic and the uitk defaults to stacking things vertically,
  including the API example [3], while the uitk-gallery example program
  does show an horizontal layout by stacking its button in a row (if
  that's recommended way, the API example should perhaps reflect that?)

  Those lacks lead our applications to be inconsistant, e.g the delete
  confirmations actions in gallery or camera have there delete/don't
  button vertically stacked, is that the correct way?
