As before, this is two commits with the first narrow and focused (just the version and NEWS.md update) and the second overwhelming as it updates the documentation site. So if you browse, browse by commit.

No new code in either commit.

Oh, and I plan to keep this open til I hear from CRAN where the package has been submitted. We are in excellent standing so I expect no surprises ... but one never knows ex ante.

Merging as the package is now at CRAN. I had left this line in DESCRIPTION which lead to the need for a human to review delaying this by a few hours:

TileDB-R/DESCRIPTION

Line 34 in 928719a

Additional_repositories: https://ghrr.github.io/drat

The line was only needed as we waited for the spdl package, I will now remove it.
