textprogressbar() displays a text-based progress bar on the console
without the need of a graphical interface. This is a good option for
no-GUI instances of MATLAB. It also displays the estimated finishing
time for the process and recalculates it on each update.

EXAMPLE OF USE:
textprogressbar('Process'); % initializes the progress bar with a
custom string
textprogressbar(P); % updates the progress bar at P and recalculates
the estimated time
textprogressbar(100); % finalizes the current progress bar and resets
