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.

## @deftypefn {} {} usejava (@var{feature})
## Return true if the Java element @var{feature} is available.

## Possible features are:
##
## @table @asis
## @item @nospell{@qcode{"awt"}}
## Abstract Window Toolkit for GUIs.
##
## @item @qcode{"desktop"}
## Interactive desktop is running.
##
## @item @qcode{"jvm"}
## Java Virtual Machine.
##
## @item @qcode{"swing"}
## Swing components for lightweight GUIs.
## @end table

## @code{usejava} determines if specific Java features are available in an
## Octave session.  This function is provided for scripts which may alter
## their behavior based on the availability of Java.  The feature
## @qcode{"desktop"} always returns @code{false} as Octave has no Java-based
## desktop.  Other features may be available if Octave was compiled with the
## Java Interface and Java is installed.
