You can use MoodleQuickForm's method setAdvanced to specify a form element as an advanced option :
$mform->addElement('select', 'display', get_string('displaymode', 'choice'), $CHOICE_DISPLAY);
$mform->setAdvanced('display');
setAdvanced takes a second boolean parameter which defaults to true. True means set this control as an advanced control. False means it is not advanced.
$mform->addElement('header', 'miscellaneoussettingshdr', get_string('miscellaneoussettings', 'form'));
$mform->setAdvanced('miscellaneoussettingshdr');
Will set the header element miscellaneoussettingshdr and all the elements it contains to advanced.
If you set any button in a form to be an advanced item then 'show / hide advanced' buttons are shown automatically in the form. Show / hide buttons are currently displayed at the top right of all fieldsets containing advanced controls. The show / hide button shows or hides advanced controls using javascript or if no javascript is available then the whole page is submitted and redisplayed with advanced controls hidden or shown.
