[eddelbuettel]

This PR formalises release 0.26.0 (already submitted to CRAN). From NEWS.md (with 'lowered' headline levels for display here):

tiledb 0.26.0

• This release of the R package builds against TileDB 2.22.0, and has also been tested against earlier releases as well as the development version (Use TileDB 2.21.1 #679, Use TileDB 2.22.0-rc0 #686, Use TileDB Embedded 2.22.0-rc1 #693, Use TileDB Embedded 2.22.0 #696)

Improvements

• The display of a filter_list is now labeled correctly as a filter list (@cgiachalis in Cumulative documentation improvements #681 addressing tiledb_dim() prints argument 'filter_list' as 'filters' #678)

• The Arrow integration has been simplified using nanoarrow returning a single nanoarrow object; an unexported helper function nanoarrow2list() is provided to matching the previous interface (Additional nanoarrow refactoring #682, Update documentation for nanoarrow refactor, deprecate helpers #685)

• An new accessor for recursive listings of (currently S3-only) URI is now available (with TileDB Core >= 2.22.0) (Add tiledb_vfs_ls_recursive() #691)

• Initial support for TILEDB_GEOM_WKB and TILEB_GEOM_WKT has been added (with TileDB Core >= 2.21.0) (Add initial minimal support for GEOM types #692)

Bug Fixes

• The column headers now correspond to the column content in the two-column data.frame returns by tiledb_object_walk (Correct the column content with the column header for object_walk (closes #683) #684 closing tiledb_object_walk() column contents has to be swapped #683)

Build and Test Systems

• The configure and Makevars.in received a minor update correcting small issues (Update configure and Makevars.in #680)

• The nightly valgrind run was updated to include release 2.22.0 (Include 2.22 in nightly valgrind #687), release 2.19 and 2.20 have been removed (Remove 2.19 and 2.20 branches from valgrind matrix #695)

Documentation

• A number of minor typographical and grammar errors in the function documentation has been corrected (@cgiachalis in Cumulative documentation improvements #681)

Deprecations

• Functions tiledb_arrow_array_ptr(), tiledb_arrow_schmea_ptr(), tiledb_arrow_array_del() and tiledb_arrow_schema_del() are deprecated (in favor of using the corresponding nanoarrow functions) and will be removed in a future release (Update documentation for nanoarrow refactor, deprecate helpers #685)

• The function tiledb_query_submit_async() is marked as deprecated (as is the underlying C++ function) and slated for removal in a future release (Deprecate tiledb_query_submit_async() #694)

Thanks @awenocur -- I will do the usual two-step and post a second commit in a minute all the docs/ files from the pkgdown documentation updated for the release.
