Mera v1.8.3

Diff since v1.8.2

Patch release: one small keyword, a faster SPH deposit, and reworked docstrings. Existing results do not change.

• New keyword sph_alpha for projection(...; weighting=:sph): sets the kernel size h = sph_alpha·(3V/4π)^(1/3) for cells with a :volume (default 1.5, as before).
• Faster :sph deposit, same maps to round-off: 1.3x faster at h = 1 pixel, 2.9x at h = 10 pixels.
• Fewer dependencies: Images is replaced by ImageIO and ImageMagick, the parts Mera uses. About 50 fewer packages to install and precompile.
• Every exported function now says what it returns and names every keyword it accepts; the 22 most used functions have new docstrings with examples. Corrected several docstring errors, e.g. range_unit=:standard means fractions of the box, not code units.
• New reference sections on off-axis frames and partial cells, particle :sph/:voronoi weighting, RT projections and RT photon fields.
• Privacy page in the documentation.
