Remarks
If a section already exists at the specified index position, calling AddSection is equivalent to adding an empty section immediately before that section.
The indices of sections after the newly inserted section are automatically incremented by one.
sectionIndex can be one larger than the total number of existing sections, as long as it is less than the maximum number of sections allowed (512); this creates a new, empty section at the end.
If no sections exist in the presentation, calling this method and passing a sectionIndex value of 1 creates the first section.
