fix st_as_stars.Spatial() for Spatial gridded objects with non-square grid cells, see https://github.com/r-spatial/gstat/issues/123
add prcomp() methods for stars and stars_proxy objects, working on attributes or last dimension

plot.stars() only resets layout when needed (more than one sub-plot, or key present)
fixed st_as_stars.im(); #648

read_mdim() will read bounds arrays for coordinates using the bounds attribute, and accepts a bounds argument to specify them when that attribute is missing
time() returns time stamps of a time dimension
st_cells() returns the cell index for a set of point coordinates, provided as sf or sfc object; #558
reading & writing vector data cubes: read_mdim() reads CF compliant vector geometries, and reconstructs them into an sfc dimension; write_mdim() writes them.
