Change 'Angle Stabilizer' to 'Angle Stability' to use min and max #249

Closed matthew-blackman closed 5 months ago

In https://github.com/phetsims/projectile-data-lab/issues/239, @terracoda pointed out that the slider labels for 'narrow' and 'wide' are not consistent with the slider API which refers to min and max. After discussing this with @terracoda and @samreid, We agreed that 'Angle Stability' is a better heading than 'Angle Stabilizer', and also allows us to use 'min' and 'max' instead of 'narrow' and 'wide'. Let's update these for clarity.

@catherinecarter (from Slack):

I like the change. “Angle Stability” going from min to max also makes the left/right make more sense. Minimum will have the least stability and therefore the highest SD, and max will have the most stability or the lowest SD. So now the slider goes from low to high rather than wide to narrow, which was somewhat counterintuitive.
