Features

• Extend cor_car to support intrinsic CAR models in pairwise difference formulation thanks to the case study of Mitzi Morris.
• Compute loo and related methods for non-factorizable normal models.

Other changes

• Rename quantile columns in posterior_summary. This affects the output of predict and related methods if summary = TRUE. (#425)
• Use hashes to check if models have the same response values when performing model comparisons. (#414)
• No longer set pointwise dynamically in loo and related methods. (#416)
• No longer show information criteria in the summary output.
• Simplify internal workflow to implement native response distributions. (#421)

Bug fixes

• Allow cor_car in multivariate models with residual correlations thanks to Quentin Read. (#427)
• Fix a problem in the Stan code generation of distributional beta models thanks to Hans van Calster. (#404)
• Fix launch_shinystan.brmsfit so that all parameters are now shown correctly in the diagnose tab. (#340)
