This is a major update to {aqp} that may create some issues for code
depending on specific inputs/outputs as of {aqp} <= 1.42,
particularly those relying on slice(), slab(),
and profile_compare(). As of {aqp} 2.0,
slice() and profile_compare() are deprecated,
but will continue to work for the rest of calendar year 2023. There are
no plans to maintain these functions beyond {aqp} 2.0. The new version
of slab() is a drop-in replacement for the previous
version.
See the manual pages for dice(), NCSP(),
and slab(). Note that these new / updated functions perform
stricter tests for horizon depth logic errors. Messages and warnings are
issued when invalid depth logic is reported by
checkHzDepthLogic(). New functions
accumulateDepths(), repairMissingHzDepths(),
and fillHzGaps() can usually salvage problematic
profiles.
The replace_na and add_soil_flag arguments
to profile_compare() are not present in
NCSP(); missing data are always replaced by maximum
dissimilarity (1 when Gower’s distance metric is used) and the
soil/non-soil matrix is always used to compare profiles of different
depth.

more robust implementation via dice(). Be sure to update
existing code to use dice() from now on. Some argument
names have changed.slab() (thanks to @brownag), with new arguments, faster back-end,
and weighted aggregation implemented (finally).profile_compare() in favor of the new
