Render a region object on a cortical surface and draw a text label at
each region's centroid (using the region's .shorttitle / atlas label).
Optionally "popout" the labels with leader lines for readability when
regions cluster. Useful for figures where you need to identify each
cluster by name without a separate legend.
Quick example
imgs = load_image_set('emotionreg');
t = ttest(imgs);
t = threshold(t, .005, 'unc', 'k', 10);
r = region(t);
create_figure('rls'); labelled_surface(r);
