I prefer #3.
From a blind-usage pure logical standpoint, the user would expect the
left-most (un-highlighted) button to abort the ongoing process entirely,
without consequence.
It is the same as having the Escape key at the far left-top of the
keyboard - intuitiveness.
The grouped buttons convey a special relationship, meaning they are
modifications on a theme. "Save" and "Don't Save" have this
relationship, in that both buttons will (in all likelihood) result in
the terminating of the application - with either saving the results, or
discarding them.
The outlier, then, is the cancellation of this process - which goes
against the flow - so it would be expected to be placed separately.
