Text annotations in 3D

Demonstrates the placement of text annotations on a 3D plot.

Functionality shown:
- Using the text function with three types of 'zdir' values: None,

- Using the text function with the color keyword.
- Using the text2D function to place text on a fixed position on the ax object.
