Struct String Replace

Replace strings in nested structure and cell arrays.

You are now following this Submission

This function recursively traverses an arbitrarily deeply nested set of structure and cell arrays, finds all instances of a given string, and replaces it with a new string.

Beyond any simple text operations, this function is useful for updating a set of pathnames stored within a large structure if the associated files are relocated.
