rpaleoclim 1.0.1.9000

Removed suggested dependency on rgdal (#18)
- raster (>= 3.5.1) now uses terra (>= 1.5-12) for linking to GDAL
- rgdal is retired and will be removed from CRAN in October 2023: https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html

Added an introductory vignette
Migrated from terra to raster:
- paleoclim() and load_paleoclim() now return a terra::SpatRaster instead of a raster::raster.
- paleoclim(as = "raster") and load_paleoclim(as = "raster") are provided for backwards compatibility. These require raster to be installed and will be removed in future versions.
- The region argument of paleoclim() now expects a terra::ext instead of a raster::extent. extent is coercible to ext, so this shouldn't break any existing code.
Fixed name of period "mis19" (was "mis")
