[Java] Remove java from the bandpass process figure

[Edouard2laire]

The objective of this PR is to remove the Java component (that will be removed from MATLAB in a coming release -- #820) from the panel that displays the filter information.

The PR also has as objective to see how you would like to proceed with the coming depreciation of some Java components. Do we only keep the MATLAB version, or do we keep both?

This was also an occasion for me to try Copilot in VS Code. It seems to be doing ok.
The functions used here (uifigure and uilabels) were introduced in MATLAB 2016b.

Before:

After:

Note: if we want to keep more backward compatibility, then uicontrol can be used to display the text (see
c38a0b0). However, the information cannot be easily displayed in BOLD:

Thanks @Edouard2laire for testing this and your feedback on Copilot :)

I think it is something that we need to do.

Have you noticed any time difference while using the uifigure versus the Brainstorm version?

I have not measured the time. But I have not felt any measurable difference when using it in comparison to the Java version.

I added the use of uigridlayout so MATLAB is handling all the resizing automatically and it looks quite fine to me:

Maybe an impertinent questions, buy why do we need uifigure for this figure?
This figure does not have interaction nor controls. Would not be simpler a vanilla figure?

[Edouard2laire]

i don't think that is impertinent :)

I guess it could be working with figure; but MATLAB seems to now recommend uifigure for apps: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/creating_guis/modern-programmatic-app-building.html

I choose uifigure here as we can use uilabels to easily display the html content. it seemed hard when using figure but there might have been ways.

but since we are moving away from java, i guess it's better to move to the most modern way of doing UI.

By App, I understand an interactive user interface, but this is static figure

I agree in the uilabels and easy HTML formatting. Though we could use old fashio LaTeX for it:
text(x, y,'\bf Bold \it Italic \color{red} Red','Interpreter','tex','FontSize',14);

[Edouard2laire]

i guess both could work, but i like UIFigure :)
I consider it an app since it's basically a pop-up from the button 'View filter property'.

As you said, text could work, but you need to tune the x,y coordinates manually. Here, uigridlayout does it for us.
