enforce code style via GitHub actions?

See https://github.com/r-lib/actions/blob/v2-branch/examples/style.yaml for an action we can use to auto-style package code and commit the changes.

I think it's worth implementing across our packages to 1) help my brain read/understand code more easily , and 2) facilitate contributions etc. from others, especially new contributors.

@eliotmcintire if you agree, I'll create PR.

I think this should wait until all our CRAN-intended packages are successfully on CRAN. We don't have the people power to deal with such a change now. We must get SpaDES.tools and NetLogoR updated on CRAN first.

this is an extremely simple addition to our GHA workflows, to automatically runs the styler::style_pkg() command after each push/PR and commit the changes.

no additional person power required.

But it will add work now to get all our code to pass, no?

[achubaty]

there's nothing to 'pass' - these aren't extra checks, this is automatically applying code styling to the package.

I guess it seems like something that I don't need right now. Can we hold off? Until after all packages are on CRAN with their updates? I will have to adapt to code being changed while I am working in it and I don't have the time to learn this right now.
