albersdown: Minimalist Theme and Vignette Kit for 'pkgdown' and R Markdown

Provides a minimalist 'ggplot2' theme, colour scales, and 'pkgdown' template built around a curated colour palette system inspired by Josef Albers' colour theory (Albers (1963, ISBN:978-0-300-17935-4) "Interaction of Color"). Includes helpers to apply consistent theming to 'ggplot2' plots, 'gt' tables, and 'bslib' Bootstrap 5 sites, along with one-command setup functions for adopting the style across an R package.
