We have been unable to find any articles that list that triclopyr can be used for stump treatment of banyan trees specifically. A typical stump treatment would involve first cutting down the tree, and then treating the fresh cut stump by brushing on an herbicide such as Fertilome Brush Killer and Stump Killer rather than the Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester Ultra. This article suggest burning the stump after creating a trench around the base and roots, however, we recommend checking with your local Department of Agriculture as to what is allowed in your area regarding burning. Either way, the tree would first have to be cut down before herbicides or other techniques could effectively prevent regrowth.
Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester is not labeled to treat johnsongrass. It targets broadleaf weeds. Gordons Ornamec Over-The-Top Grass Herbicide will kill johnsongrass around established listed ornamentals. Ornamec will control Annual Johnsongrass seedlings (sorghum halepense) when 2 to 8 inches tall, before tillering or heading. It will control perennial rhizome johnsongrass that is 8 to 18 inches tall and before booted stage, per the product label. You may need multiple applications for more mature plants. We also suggest using a pre-emergent herbicide in the future for the best control of Jonhsongrass and many other difficult weeds. Prodiamine 65 WDG is safe to use around most turf and ornamentals. If treating the grass in the lawn, please provide the desired turf species for a recommendation.

This article from the Florida State Extension offers the most detailed recommendations for treating this invasive plant.

To prevent weeds from germinating, a pre emergent is going to be your best option as the Hi-Yield Triclopyr Ester is only going to kill actively growing weeds and will not prevent new weeds from germinating.
