(devel/R-usethis) Updated 2.1.6 to 2.2.0

# usethis 2.2.0

## New functions

* `use_author()` is a new function to introduce a new person into the
  `Authors@R` field of DESCRIPTION (@avalcarcel9, #833).

* `use_rstudio_preferences()` lets you set RStudio preferences programmatically
  (#1518)

* `use_standalone()` is a new function that makes it easier to use standalone
  files provided by various low-level tidyverse packages, like rlang (#1654).

* `use_upkeep_issue()` is a new function to facilitate regular maintenance of
  your package. Similar to `use_release_issue()`, it opens an issue in your repo
  with a checklist of maintenance tasks. It will include additional bullets
  if your package includes an `upkeep_bullets()` function that returns a
  character vector (#1794).

## Package development

* Although nested projects are discouraged, they can be useful in development
  contexts. `create_package()` now sets the correct package name and returns
  the correct package path for a package nested inside a project (#1647).

* `use_article()` no longer adds the rmarkdown package to `Suggests`. Instead,
  if rmarkdown is not already a dependency, it's added to
  `Config/Needs/website`. This means that a package that only uses articles
  (vs. vignettes) won't gain an unnecessary dependency on rmarkdown (#1700).

* `use_data()` now sets the appropriate minimal R version in `DESCRIPTION`,
  depending on which serialization format `version` you choose (@dpprdan, #1672).

* `use_github_links()` by default now appends the GitHub url to existing urls in
  in the `URL` field of DESCRIPTION, rather than replacing existing urls (#1805).

* `use_latest_dependencies()` no longer affects `Suggests` since those
  dependencies are not enforced (#1749).

* `use_news_md()` now places "(development version)" in the header of \ 
`NEWS.md`
   if there is a development version number in `DESCRIPTION`. It also sets the
   first bullet to "Initial CRAN submission" when it looks like a \ 
"new" package
   (#1708).

* `use_coverage()` no longer adds covr to `Suggests`, since the `test-coverage`
  GitHub Actions workflow takes care of installing covr (@Bisaloo, #1851).

## Package release

* `use_release_issue()` will now remind you to run `use_github_links()` if
  necessary (@Bisaloo, #1754)

* `use_release_issue()` now encourages the creation of `NEWS.md` prior to
  submission, instead of after (#1755).

* `use_github_release()` now automatically pushes to GitHub (if safe) and
  automatically publishes the release, rather than requiring you to edit and
  publish the draft (#1385).

* `use_github_release()` no longer fails in the absence of `NEWS.md` (#1755).

* `use_release_issue()` will now remind you to check/close the milestone
  corresponding to the release, if it exists (#1642).

* `use_version()` and `use_dev_version()` gain a `push` argument to optionally
  push the result after committing. This is used to eliminate a manual step from
  the `use_release_issue()` checklist (#1385).

* `use_revdep()` no longer places an email template, because these days we are
  more likely to communicate with other maintainers about breaking changes via
  GitHub issues and pull requests (#1769).

## Package file management

* `rename_files()` now also affects files in `src/` (#1585).

* `use_r()` and `use_test()` now work with all active files in `R/`, `src/`,
  and `tests/testthat/` (#1566).

* `use_r()` and `use_test()` now work with files containing `.` (#1690).

* `use_rcpp()`, `use_c()` and friends now work the same way as `use_r()` and
  `use_test()`: they'll take the default file name from the file you currently
  have open in RStudio (#1730).

## Git and GitHub

* `create_from_github()` will now use an existing `.Rproj` file if it exists
  anywhere in the repo, not just the root directory. This is useful if you're
  working with repos that contain tools for multiple languages (#1680).

* `git_sitrep()` gains two arguments: `tool` and `scope`, which enables
  you to limit the report to, for example, `tool = "git"` or `scope = \ 
"user"`.
  The default remains to provide a full report. Also, provides more
  feedback if git user's information is not set, and checks global git-email
  against user-level GitHub PAT (@ijlyttle, #1732, #1714, #1706).

* `git_vaccinated()` now treats a path configured as `core.excludesFile` like
  other user-supplied paths; in particular, any use of the `~/` home directory
  shortcut is expanded via
  [`fs::path_expand()`](https://fs.r-lib.org/reference/path_expand.html)
  (@dpprdan, #1560).

* `use_github_action()` now suggests possible actions when called without
  arguments (#1724).

* `use_github_actions()`, `use_github_action_check_standard()`,
  `use_github_action_check_release()`, and `use_github_action_pr_commands()`
  have been deprecated in favour of the new interactive powers of
  `use_github_action()` (#1724).

## Minor improvements and fixes

* Links to the R Packages book have been updated to the second edition of
  the book (#1689).

* The SVG badges placed by `use_lifecycle()` have improved accessibility
  features, i.e. they advertise the lifecycle stage via the `aria-label`
  attribute (#1554, https://github.com/r-lib/lifecycle/issues/117).

* `use_rscloud_badge()` has been deprecated in favour of
  `use_posit_cloud_badge()`, and both functions now accept the updated url
  format of Posit Cloud projects (#1670).

* `use_rstudio()` gains a `reformat` argument which omits `.Rproj` settings
  that enforce file formatting conventions, e.g. around whitespace.
  `create_from_github()` uses this option when it introduces an `.Rproj` to a
  project that lacks one, making it easier to follow the project's existing
  conventions (#1679).

* `write_over()` and `use_github_file()` gain an overwrite argument (#1748).

## Tidyverse-related

* `use_release_issue()` now uses internal `release_extra_revdeps()` to
  add extra revdep sources. Currently only use for internal Posit tooling,
  but we hope to extend to all users in the future (#1610).

* `use_tidy_logo()` is a new function that calls `use_logo()` on the appropriate
  hex sticker PNG file at <https://github.com/rstudio/hex-stickers> (#1871).

## Defunct functions

* `use_tidy_eval()` is now defunct because it imports and re-exports a large
  number of functions that are no longer needed in order to do tidy
  evaluation (#1656).

* `use_travis()`, `use_pkgdown_travis()`, `browse_travis()`, and `use_appveyor()`
  are now defunct because we no longer recommend Travis or Appveyor. We
  recommend GitHub actions instead (#1517).
