HIDDA.forecasting 1.1.2

• Vignettes have been rebuilt using up-to-date versions of all involved packages in R 4.3.2 (on a new machine). This only gave minor numerical differences in the long-term forecasts of vignette("CHILI_prophet").

• Accommodate restricted checks without suggested packages.

HIDDA.forecasting 1.1.1

Vignettes have been rebuilt using up-to-date versions of all involved packages in R 4.0.4.

HIDDA.forecasting 1.1.0

Some minor updates of the package vignettes:

• Use standard PIT for continuous forecasts (arima, prophet, naive).
  Differences to the previously used non-randomized PIT histograms for count data are negligible.

• Investigate scores for discretized log-normal forecasts, via new function scores_lnorm_discrete().
  These scores are almost identical to the continuous scores, essentially due to the large counts.

• Vignettes have been rebuilt using up-to-date versions of all involved packages (forecast 8.5, glarma 1.6.0, hhh4contacts 0.13.0, prophet 0.4, scoringRules 0.9.5, surveillance 1.17.0) in R 3.5.3. These updates did not affect any results.
