update Octave Project Developers copyright for the new year
In files that have the "Octave Project Developers" copyright notice,
update for 2021.
In all .txi and .texi files except gpl.txi and gpl.texi in the
doc/liboctave and doc/interpreter directories, change the copyright
to "Octave Project Developers", the same as used for other source
files. Update copyright notices for 2022 (not done since 2019). For
gpl.txi and gpl.texi, change the copyright notice to be "Free Software
Foundation, Inc." and leave the date at 2007 only because this file
only contains the text of the GPL, not anything created by the Octave
Project Developers.
Add Paul Thomas to contributors.in.

[\fIfile\fP] .SH DESCRIPTION Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically. \fBoctave-cli\fP has been compiled without any GUI support (Qt) which makes it smaller than the default \fBoctave\fP executable, but also limits it to providing just the command line interface (CLI). .SH OPTIONS The complete set of command-line options for \fBoctave-cli\fP is available by running the following command from the shell. .Vb octave-cli \-\-help .Ve .SH DOCUMENTATION The primary documentation for Octave is written using Texinfo, the GNU documentation system, which allows the same source files to be used to produce online and printed versions of the manual. .PP You can read the online copy of the Octave documentation by issuing the following command from within Octave. .Vb octave:1> doc .Ve The Info files may also be read with a stand-alone program such as \fBinfo\fP or \fBxinfo\fP. HTML, Postscript, or PDF versions of the documentation are installed on many systems as well. .SH BUGS The Octave project maintains a bug tracker at https://bugs.octave.org. Before submitting a new item please read the instructions at https://www.octave.org/bugs.html on how to submit a useful report. .SH FILES Upon startup Octave looks for four initialization files. Each file may contain any number of valid Octave commands. .TP \fIoctave-home\fP/share/octave/site/m/startup/octaverc Site-wide initialization file which changes options for all users. \fIoctave-home\fP is the directory where Octave was installed such as \fB/usr/local\fP. .TP \fIoctave-home\fP/share/octave/\fIversion\fP/m/startup/octaverc Site-wide initialization file for Octave version \fIversion\fP. .TP ~/.octaverc User's personal initialization file. .TP \&\.octaverc Project-specific initialization file located in the current directory. .SH AUTHOR John W.
