refactor: use .from() instead of deprecated from() from igraph

[maelle]

👋 @osofr! I'm opening this PR on behalf of the igraph R package team as we prepare the next release of igraph. The from() function is being hard-deprecated.

We want to export .from so that the eval(parse(text = )) trick should become unnecessary: igraph/rigraph#1435. For now, this looks good, thanks!

[maelle]

@osofr we're currently working on releasing the new igraph version on CRAN. Could you please update your package on CRAN to avoid its being broken by igraph? Thank you. 🙏

Hi @maelle,
I see that @osofr already committed the changes related to .from. Is there anything else needed to keep compatibility with igraph?

[maelle]

@fkgruber yes, submitting this version to CRAN so that when igraph hits CRAN, your package isn't broken. Thanks a lot for your help.

[fkgruber]

@osofr I will submit the current master version to CRAN

[fkgruber]

@fkgruber yes, submitting this version to CRAN so that when igraph hits CRAN, your package isn't broken. Thanks a lot for your help.

When are you plannig to submit to CRAN?

[maelle]

we're working on it this week cc @krlmlr

[maelle]

so, the sooner you submit yours the better. I'm sorry I wasn't more explicit when I made this PR this summer!
