    Create a grid layout suitable for matplotlib's subplot_mosaic.

    If `labels` is None, auto-generate labels like 'A1', 'A2', ..., 'B1', 'B2', etc.

    Args:
        labels (list of str or None): Subplot labels. If None, generate from ncols and nrows.
        ncols (int or None): Number of columns in the grid (required).
        nrows (int or None): Number of rows (required if labels is None).
        placeholder (str): Placeholder for empty grid cells.

    Returns:
        list of list of str: A 2D list representing the grid layout.
