Changelog

This release accompanies the publication of the funGp in-depth manual in the Journal of Statistical Software.

Maintainer email updated from djbetancourt@uninorte.edu.co to fungp.rpack@gmail.com to ensure a stable channel of communication with the community.
A couple syntax fixes in the package notation to keep up with recent updates in Roxygen2.

Argument extend added to the update method enabling to perform hyperparameter re-estimation, using the previous hyperparameter values stored in the model as starting points for the new optimization.

Line type of the mean function in plotSims.fgpm changed to dashed (lty = 2) for easier inspection.
The trace, pbars and control.optim arguments were added to update.fgpm for a wider control of displays.
Convergence code and negated log-likelihood value added as slots of fgpm objects to make them more informative.
Forwarding of optim() control argument enabled in fgpm through control.optim.
Following the addition of control.optim, we improved the functionality of the fgpm and fgpm_factory arguments to control the display of funGp native progress messages
The trace, pbars and control.optim arguments were added to modelDef for a wider control of displays.
Pre-existent future backend registers protected as suggested by the author of future in issue #14
Pre-existent foreach adapters registers protected as suggested by the author of future in issue #15

The summary method has been added for Xfgpm and fgpm objects.
New classes "predict.Xfgpm" and "simulate.Xfgpm".
All plotters are now plot methods for the classes "Xfgpm", "fgpm", "predict.Xfgpm" or "simulate.Xfgpm".
New functions modelDef and [[ to refit a fgpm object from a Xfgpm one.

format4pred() removed and replaced by get_active_in() as anticipated in 0.2.0 release.

Own rm_between() function implemented to remove dependency on the qdapRegex package.
Minor change to resolve a %dopar% issue during parallelized processes based on %dorng%.

Minor change to resolve a check NOTE related to the declaration in Imports of the plyr package.

Fixed incoherence between the sorting order of the list of explored models and their performance statistic, stored at the xm@log.success@sols and xm@log.success@fitness slots of the Xfgpm object delivered by fgpm_factory(). Now the models in xm@log.success@sols are correctly sorted in decreasing order by performance.
Resolved bug causing crash in fgpm_factory() during structural optimization with only functional inputs, e.g., for the call fgpm_factory(fIn = fIn, sOut = sOut). Thanks to Jérémy Rohmer for pointing out the bug.
Resolved bug causing crash in fgpm_factory() during structural optimization with only scalar inputs, e.g., for the call fgpm_factory(sIn = sIn, sOut = sOut).

Improved display of progress bars for fgpm() and fgpm_factory().
Improved placing of the legend in plotX() to prevent hiding important information.
