Vignettes needed

[elinw]

We could use some good vignettes of both simple and advanced use.

[elinw]

A couple of vignettes are now in the develop branch, but they could definitely be expanded.

[elinw]

For example we could use vignettes on how to use the individual functions or how to do printing (though that is a bit complex, it would be great for someone to start it off at least.) Don't feel you need to write everything.

[elinw]

We need to update the vignettes with new features.

[elinw]

We have good basic vignettes but it would be nice to add more extended examples of use cases. This might go into a third vignette if someone would like to create it.

[elinw]

Add a vignette about working with skimr +dplyr.

[elinw]

We're pretty good on the basics but could still use others addressing specific tasks that people do with skimr (such as make variable summary tables for papers).

For the supporting additional objects vignette:

1. There is no need to have an sfc_MulitX for each class. All the classes inherit sfc class and skimr is able to work fine with: skim_sf <- skim_with( sfc = sfl( n_unique = n_unique, valid = ~ sum(sf::st_is_valid(.)) ) )

2. I think a function that is simple without being silly is:

get_crs <- function(column){ crs <- sf::st_crs(column)

paste0("epsg: ", crs[["epsg"]], " proj4string: '", crs[["proj4string"]], "'") }

I have an updated .Rmd, if you think think that will be helpful for the vignette.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Please check the contribution guide and open a pull request. We can discuss particulars in the updated version of the Rmd.
