Install gdalcubes from GitHub now that CRAN archived it (#80) - #84

Conversation
gdalcubes was archived on CRAN on 2026-09-16, which broke the pkgdown workflow's dependency resolve and user installs of the STAC functions. Upstream master (0.7.5) carries the filter_geom fix from our fork, so Remotes points at appelmar/gdalcubes with no suffix.

Since #48 the cache lives under <cache>/v2/<source>, but five opt-in network assertions still listed <cache>/<source> and so failed on every run. Found verifying gdalcubes 0.7.5; every data assertion passed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01PRhUJsuKABLfpBGktPoiBN
rlang::check_installed() offered a bare-name install, which now means
CRAN and fails. The three gdalcubes guards share one helper whose error
gives pak::pak("appelmar/gdalcubes"). Found by code-check round 1.

Fixes #80
Why
gdalcubes was archived on CRAN on 2026-09-16. drift lists it in
Suggests, and the pkgdown workflow resolves Suggests forlocal::.withneeds: website. That resolve has failed on every push since 2026-09-26 (runs 36257119060, 36257649915), so the published site is stuck at7011fa6from 2026-09-07. New users also can no longer install whatdft_stac_fetch()anddft_stac_cube()need.What
Remotes:gainsappelmar/gdalcubes, with no suffix per the pin policy. Upstream master is 0.7.5 (ed68331, "CRAN v0.7.5 release candidate") and has already merged ourfilter_geomsegfault fix (their PR #111), so theNewGraphEnvironment/gdalcubes@newgraphfork is no longer needed. The gotchas note records this.pak::pak("appelmar/gdalcubes").dft_stac_fetch,dft_stac_cube,dft_index_expr) share one helper,check_gdalcubes(). Its error names the GitHub install.rlang::check_installed()would have offered a bare-name install, which now means CRAN and fails. Code-check round 1 found this.<cache>/<source>) since Cache key moved on an rlang upgrade, silently orphaning every cached cube and fetch #48 moved the cache to<cache>/v2/<source>, so they failed on every opt-in run. They now usecache_scheme_dir(). Verifying 0.7.5 surfaced them. Every data assertion in those tests had passed.Verification (gdalcubes 0.7.5 installed from GitHub)
