0.24.0

Release 0.24.0 of the R package builds against TileDB 2.20.0, and has been tested against earlier releases as well as the development version and the updated TileDB 2.20.1.

The package has been in 'inspect' state at CRAN for several days for reasons outside of our control: the package has a weak 'Suggests:' dependency on arrow which itself appears stalled at CRAN; this package is merely a bystander in that issue.
