nbconv 2.0.0

Updated documentation
Replaced mclapply() calls with parLapply() to make parallelization available on Windows machines.
Renamed "exact" to "series".
Improved numerical stability in nb_sum_series().
Improved approach to/automated selection of the number of series terms included in the series method.
Fixed a bug in the implementation of saddlepoint normalization.
Added the FFT-based evaluation method.
Add the 'hybrid' evaluation method that combines the FFT-based method with the series method when extreme values are required.

Fixed bug in nb_sum_saddlepoint() that could lead to NaN errors when solving the saddlepoint equation with stats::uniroot().
Added parallelization in rnbconv() to speed up large-scale sampling.
Updated notation in nb_sum_saddlepoint() for clarity.
Added additional checks to ensure: 0 < ps <= 1, mus >= 0, phis > 0.
