Version 2.0.0

This release brings copc-lib up to current COPC.io spec at commit a6e8654. This includes removing support for PRDF 1-5 and adding support for CopcExtents. Additionally, the means of interacting with the LasHeader, CopcInfo, and other COPC elements were simplified under one CopcConfig object. Other existing functions and variables were renamed, and the style format was explicitly defined.
