SAS Packages Framework, version 20241102

SAS Packages Framework, version 20241102

Changes:

In the `%loadPackage()`, the `%ICEloadPackage()`, and the `%loadPackageAddCnt()` macros version of a package can be provided with a comparison condition.

If the required version is provided with a comparison operator, e.g., `<=`, `=`, or `>`, then the operator is used to compare `required` and `provided` versions.

The following example:
```sas
%loadPackage(myPackage
  ,requiredVersion=1.2.2=
)
```
will force to load the package only if the required version is exactly equal to the provided one.

Comparison is done in form "`req. comparison prov.`".

Documentation and HoW-materials updated.
