If you want to reset that default groups configuration (subsite or rootsite) Owners, Members, Visitors (in case of deletion of site migration for example).
You can use that technical page (not available from the settings menu):

That will offer you the choice from the existing groups list or create your own.

- This is also available in CSOM for quite some time but was not really documented.
You can reset the setting to OwnerGroup by using:

context.Site.RootWeb.Update();
context.ExecuteQuery();
If the settings is different for subwebs you have to reset it too. - Thanks for the URL - saved me hunting high and low. :)
