New map service Maptiler, minor improvements

Features:

• added Maptiler support (map_service="maptiler") for many new map types from https://maptiler.com (free token required), including "aquarelle", "backdrop", "basic", "bright", "dataviz", "landscape", "ocean", "outdoor", "satellite", "streets", "toner", "topo" and "winter" (see get_maptypes())

Bugs:

• Resolves 404 HTTP error when using map_service="osm_stamen", map_type="watercolor" (#31, #30, thanks to @pushing-boulders for the PR)
• fixes an issue remarked in #29 that produces to much verbosity

0.0.7

basemaps 0.0.7

Minor improvements

Changes:

• maps rendered using basemap_ggplot or basemap_gglayer or objects plotted using gg_raster are now displayed with all pixels by default (full resolution, maxpixels argument) instead of rendering in a lower resolution (previous default: 500000).
• switched from using aes_string to aes in gg_raster due to deprectation of the function in ggplot2.

0.0.6

basemaps 0.0.6

Major improvements, adding new map services

Bugs:

• Fixing an issue with maps appearing blurred/of low resolution when using basemap_ggplot or basemap_gglayer. Maps should now show up with consistent resolutions across plot/viewing methods.
• Fixing a bug from upstream causing maps to not get mosaiced correctly
• Fixing grDevices display bug when NAs are in map imagery

Changes:

• gg_raster now accepts interpolate, a logical argument to control smoothing of the plotted raster.
• added Stadia Maps support for osm_stamen maps: Due to changes by Stamen, you now need a map token from https://stadiamaps.com (free registration) for Stamen maps.
• added Stadia Maps as new map service osm_stadia (requires map token from https://stadiamaps.com)

0.0.5

basemaps 0.0.5

Added gg_raster and basemap_terra

Features:

• added basemap_terra to output maps as class SpatRaster from package terra
• added gg_raster, a function that plots objects of class RasterLayer, RasterBrick or {RasterStack as ggplot2

Changes:

• included terra as Imports dependency
• replaced internal calls to raster functions with equivalent functions of its successor terra
• moved raster from Imports to Suggests, as it has been internally replaced by its successor terra
• moved stars from Imports to Suggests
• changed default value of argument class to basemap() to plot for being more user-friendly to users not familiar with spatial classes

Updated help, bug fixes.

Bugs:

• dropped defunct/not maintained tile servers (OSM) from map services list
• fixing a bug ("dimensions of e1 and e2 do not match") when trying to build a map from map_service="mapbox" and map_type="terrain" with newer versions of stars
• added a handling to fix a plotting bug for cases in which maps returned by tile servers (for whatever reasons) consist of only a single value (e.g. 0) for the given query extent (#9)
• fixed a bug placing cached maps in the wrong directory when map_dir is defined by the user (#11)
• cached maps stored in other directories than the currently set map_dir are now disregarded to avoid path errors when switching map directories during a session (#11)

Features:

• added flush_cache, a function that flushes the cache and thereby removes all previously queried and/or composited products from the map directories (temporary or user-defined using the argument map_dir) used during the current session.
