[FieldTrip] Importing Brainstorm head and source models and leftfields

For some reason, ft_plot_sens doesn't want to get passed both the 
gradiometers and the magnetometers at once.
Just run the process without the option "Display sensor/MRI 
registration" and you won't get this error any more.

Yes, this is what you should do: select some recordings for the subject, 
and it will get the files it needs automatically from the database.
Right now, this process does the following:
- If the segmented masks produced previously with ft_volumesegment are 
available (called "mask_innerskull", "mask_outerskull" and "mask_scalp") 
it uses them.
- Otherwise it uses the selected volume (displayed in green), passes it 
to ft_volumesegment for segmentation, then uses the segmented volumes 
without storing them anywhere.
