Remove lazyload in DESCRIPTION to meet new CRAN policy (this package has no data)

All API request now use SSL by default. To force connections without SSL, set the option use_insecure_ptv_connection to TRUE.
In response to changes to the PTV API, run_information now requires a character run_ref instead of an integer run_id. Functions will attempt to convert the argument to a character, and so integer arguments will still work for runs that are not bus or nightrider runs.
Functions that return route_type will now also return route_type_description, which is a human-readable interpretation of the route type. For example, when route_type is 0, route_type_description is “Train”.
In response to changes to the PTV API, run functions now support a date_utc argument for returning results as of a given date. This is experimental, and possibly non-functional.
Functions that internally convert between a route type and a human-readable description of a route type will use a cached version of route_types, in order to reduce the number of queries of the API.
Fixed failing assertion that was causing run_information to fail when specifying a route type.
The column service_status_timestampe in data returned by route functions has been changed to service_status_timestamp .

Changed unit tests to use lubridate instead of base for time zone declarations. The lubridate package better supports adding time zones to NA datetimes, as this was causing issues with R-devel (4.0.3).

This release was the first to be accepted to CRAN.

Adjustments to package DESCRIPTION to meet CRAN standards
Removed internal function need_api_details, as it depended on changing the user’s options. This function has been incorporated into the error messages in determine_user_id and determine_api_key.
Removed documentation for the following internal functions, which should resolve the issue of missing argument values in the respective .Rd files: determine_user_id, determine_api_key, prefix_base_url, prefix_version, prefix_base_url_and_version
Created value Rd-tag for departures function
Removed examples for the following internal functions: convert_to_melbourne_time, PTVGET
Added ptvapi::: to examples in the following internal functions: add_parameter, add_parameters
Removed internal function route_types_cached, and replaced all uses with route_types. With these changes, there are no references to user options remaining in the package.
