This PR wires up GitHub Actions to publish the pkgdown site via gh-pages on push of a release tag. (The deploy can also be triggered manually or by push of a specific branch,
scratch/deploy-site
.)In addition to adding the workflow, this PR makes several related changes:
add pkgdown configuration
ignore the
docs/
directorygenerate and track favicons for the site
fix links in README
run
check_pkgdown
as part of the main CI checkThe gh-pages branch has been created, but the deployment hasn't been triggered yet because the repo settings need to be adjusted to deploy from the gh-pages branch.
