Release 1.1.0 Stable

This release encompasses a few different versions - the changes made to ParBayesianOptimization in the last few months are all being included in these notes.

Major Changes

• Gaussian Process package is now DiceKriging. Faster predictions and doesn't use S6 methods.
• bayesOpt() and its methods/functions has replaced BayesianOptimization().
• Added time limit, utility requirement, and improved other early stopping situations (errors, no unique parameters, etc).
• Iterations can be added to an existing bayesOpt object, and the parameters of the search (acq, gsPoints, etc.) can be changed.

Minor Changes

• Plotting has been improved. Now uses ggplot2 and includes S3 method for bayesOpt objects.
• Now includes a print method.
• Errors can be included in scoreSummary along with parameters and elapsed time to help debug problems in FUN.
• A set limit on the number of errors can be set before returning results (errorHandling parameter)

Meta Changes

• Improvements to Documentation
• Added comprehensive unit tests for successful and unsuccessful scenarios.
