Add more detail to greta_sitrep()

[njtierney]

Relevant issue #612

Goals:

• R & Rstudio version
• Greta version - and point to whether installed from CRAN/github etc.
• Paths to Python, TF, and TFP. This might help debug issues with this
• Paths to greta env (if used)
• Note if greta env is used
• Don't just print TF/TFP versions, list where they are installed
• List python version, and where it is installed, which environment is used
• Add various helper functions to identify where TF is installed
• Add various helper functions to identify where TFP is installed

[njtierney]

Currently can't seem to work out where TF and TFP are installed.

I'm also wondering if a verbose = TRUE option might be useful here? The info is getting a little bit long!

So perhaps some option like:

greta_sitrep(verbosity = "verbose")

By default, and then some note that appears at the end of the messages that tells you about the verbose option?

Other options could be "quiet", "minimal", "verbose" ?
