Linfa 0.6 update

[quietlychris]

Work-in-progress for update to linfa v0.6, including removing mdbook-scientific, adding a linear regression model, and adding CI for the code.

[quietlychris]

I'm requesting an initial review for these changes, which updates all code to 0.6, removes mdook-scientific, re-structures the repository, and adds content for linear regression. I realize this should probably have been a set of smaller PRs, but one thing led to another, and i think the end result is comprehensive enough for a thumbs-up or thumbs-down approach for these changes. I also think this should make it easier for new content to be added in the future.

Add newline

I'm not sure what this newline is for?

Generating plots in Rust requires a surprising amount of boilerplate.

[quietlychris]

Yeah, the boilerplate is a bit of a pain to be honest; it's actually one of the reasons that I think having a book like this is useful; it can be a little frustrating trying to figure out how to do that by yourself (the API is extensive), so I'm hoping this will cut down on the time that people need to get going.

At some point, I'm hoping that plotters might consider working on a higher-level API with a bunch on default in the Builder pattern or something, combined with an ndarray plug-in or something, but it doesn't seem to be a high priority and I don't really have the time to design something like that myself at the moment.
