feat: migrate the library() logic from spidyr to webr

[ColinFay]

spidyr currently supports doing the following:

const tools = await library("tools"); 
const res = await tools.toTitleCase(["hello from r"]);

Or more elegantly, imho :

const { toTitleCase } = await library("tools");
const res = await toTitleCase(["hello from r"]);

As we discussed offline, there might be no good reason for it to be specific to the NodeJS runtime, we could definitely benefit from it being natively integrated to webR, so that we could have it in the browser too:

// target code 
<script type="module" >
  import('https://webr.r-wasm.org/latest/webr.mjs').then(
  async ({WebR}) => {
      const webR = new WebR();
      await webR.init();
      let tools = await library("tools");
      let result = await tools.toTitleCase(["hello from r"]);
    }
  );
</script>

Current code exists at https://github.com/ColinFay/spidyr/blob/main/src/library.js

Happy to work on a PR for integrating this directly into webR

Sounds like a great feature! My only additional suggestion would be that, similar to other webR APIs, the library() JS function is made accessible through the instantiated webR object:

  const webR = new WebR();
  await webR.init();
  let tools = await webR.library("tools");
  let result = await tools.toTitleCase(["hello from r"]);

Yes, feel free to make an intial PR and we'll go from there.

Awesome!

I'll be on vacation for the next two weeks but I'll work on this as soon as I get back.
