Replace parallel::mclapply() and parallel::parLapply() with
future.apply::future_lapply(), enabling transparent support for any
future backend (multisession, multicore, mirai_multisession, cluster)
on all platforms including Windows.
When parallel = TRUE the function now: (1) respects an active
future::plan() set by the user without overriding it on exit, or
(2) sets a temporary multisession plan with parallelly::availableCores()
and tears it down on exit. The max_cores argument controls worker count
only when no user plan is active.
future and future.apply are added to Suggests in DESCRIPTION.
