taylor 1.0.0

Breaking changes

• Red (Taylor's Version) has replaced Red in taylor_album_songs (#9).

• The type argument of color_palette() is deprecated and will be removed in
  a future release. Previously, if you wanted to interpolate more colors between
  those originally specified, you needed to specify type = "continuous". This
  was misleading, because color_palette() still returned a discrete number of
  colors (n). Now, interpolation happens automatically if n is greater than
  length(pal).

  my_colors <- c(ku_blue = "#0051ba", "firebrick", "#ffc82d")
  my_palette <- color_palette(my_colors)
  
  # old
  color_palette(my_palette, n = 10, type = "continuous")
  color_palette(my_palette, n = 2, type = "discrete")
  
  # new
  color_palette(my_palette, n = 10)
  color_palette(my_palette, n = 2)

Minor improvements and fixes

• New color palette added to album_palettes for Red (Taylor's Version).

• New single color added to album_compare for Red (Taylor's Version).

• Metacritic score for Red (Taylor's Version) has been added to
  taylor_albums.

• Wildest Dreams (Taylor's Version) has been added as a non-album single.
  Presumably this will eventually move to 1989 (Taylor's Version).

• Hex logo and pkgdown website have been updated to have a
  Red (Taylor's Version) theme.

• Fix the majority of non-ASCII characters in song lyrics. Remaining characters
  are en/em dashes and letters with accent marks.

• color_palette() now preserves color names, either through R color
  specifications (i.e., colors()) or a named vector supplied to pal (#12).

  my_colors <- c(ku_blue = "#0051ba", "firebrick", "#ffc82d")
  color_palette(my_colors)
