SAS Packages Framework version 20231024
Modification in `%generatePackage()` macro. Situation when dependencies for package are missing is now handled more gracefully. It's still an error message, but now it ends more elegant way.
The macroArray package [ver. 1.1.0]
New parameter in the `%array()` macro:
* `q=` - *Optional*, indicates (when set to `1`) if the value be surrounded by quotes. It uses `quote(cats(...))` combo under the hood. Default value is `0`. Ignored for `macarray=M`.
## SAS Packages Framework, version `20230904`

New features in this release are:
- in `%generatePackage()` macro - test for check of duplicated names of the same type was added to the package generation process.
- in `%loadPackage()` macro - User can now suppress running the `exec` type files during the loading process. Parameter name is `suppressExec=`.
- in `%helpPackage()` macro - User can now generate dataset `work.packageName_content` containing list of the package elements similar to the one printed in the log. Parameter name is `packageContentDS=`.
Documentation updated.

In the `%generatePackage()` macro:
- A `packageGenerated` macrovariable added to packages metadata.It contains timestamp when the package was generated in the ISO8601 form (`YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss`) The variable is from now on used the log output for headers in lading, help, preview, etc.
- Diagnostic messages for loading required packages extended.
- Help info updated for macros dedicated to CASL UDFs and IML modules loading.
- SHA256 hash digest for the package is calculated in two versions(types). Type `F` generates digest for whole package zip file. Type `C` generates digest for package zip file content. For developer convenience both digests are generated and displayed. Details are available in the [documentation](https://github.com/yabwon/SAS_PACKAGES/tree/main/SPF/Documentation).
The `%verifyPackage()` macro adjusted to new digest types. For the backward compatibility verification works also of packages generated with previous versions of SPF.
