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  {} {@var{sout} =} orderfields (@var{s1})
## @deftypefnx {} {@var{sout} =} orderfields (@var{s1}, @var{s2})
## @deftypefnx {} {@var{sout} =} orderfields (@var{s1}, @{@var{cellstr}@})
## @deftypefnx {} {@var{sout} =} orderfields (@var{s1}, @var{p})
## @deftypefnx {} {[@var{sout}, @var{p}] =} orderfields (@dots{})
## Return a @emph{copy} of @var{s1} with fields arranged alphabetically, or as
## specified by the second input.
##
## Given one input struct @var{s1}, arrange field names alphabetically.
##
## If a second struct argument is given, arrange field names in @var{s1} as
## they appear in @var{s2}.  The second argument may also specify the order
## in a cell array of strings @var{cellstr}.  The second argument may also
## be a permutation vector.
##
## The optional second output argument @var{p} is the permutation vector which
## converts the original name order to the new name order.
##

## @group
