crownsegmentr 1.1.3

Re-Release on CRAN, after lidR had been down
Default values for several parameters in segment_tree_crowns were changed, due to results from a large sensitivity analysis experiment. This applies to these parameters: segment_crowns_only_above, centroid_convergence_distance, max_iterations_per_point, dbscan_neighborhood_radius, min_num_points_per_crown
The changes done between v1.0.2 and v1.1.1 mean that watershed_diameter_raster and li_diameter_raster now produce different results, and segment_tree_crowns produces different results if one of the aforementioned parameters is left as default.

Fixed a mathematical error in watershed_diameter_raster and li_diameter_raster: diameter is now calculated as 2*sqrt(area/pi), and no longer as sqrt(area). This causes resulting raster values to be slightly higher in most cases.
In the light of new research results, the default value for the parameter smoothing_radius in the above functons was changed from 5 to 10.

Fixed malfunctioning in diameter_raster functions that stemmed from terra behavior differing on different machines of parallelization regimes
