metasnf - v0.2.0

Pre-release prior to upcoming changes for protocol paper

This release contains a version of the package prior to the implementation of several changes in preparation for an accompanying protocol paper.

Proposed upcoming changes:

1. Change in package name
2. Changes in function names
3. Capability of defining custom distance metrics
4. Capability of defining custom feature weights
5. Capability of defining custom SNF-level weights
6. Capability of defining custom clustering algorithms
7. Added flexibility during generation of the settingsmatrix (currently known as the designmatrix)
8. New visualization functions and improvements to existing visualization functions
9. Capability of calculating solution stability across patient resamplings for all cluster solutions
10. Capability of calculating a wide range of quality metrics for all cluster solutions
11. Capability of writing affinity matrices to disk
12. Capability of not running the clustering on every run of SNF (only makes sense when paired with the previous change)
13. Updated vignette(s) to fully document basic and advance usage of the package
14. Maybe some other things!
