Defines functions transition_states

Documented in transition_states

#' Transition between several distinct stages of the data
#'
#' This transition splits your data into multiple states based on the levels in
#' a given column, much like [ggplot2::facet_wrap()] splits up the data in
#' multiple panels. It then tweens between the defined states and pauses at each
#' state. Layers with data without the specified column will be kept constant
#' during the animation (again, mimicking `facet_wrap`).
#'
#' @param states The unquoted name of the column holding the state levels in the
#' data.
#' @param transition_length The relative length of the transition. Will be
#' recycled to match the number of states in the data
#' @param state_length The relative length of the pause at the states. Will be
#' recycled to match the number of states in the data
#' @param wrap Should the animation *wrap-around*? If `TRUE` the last state will
#' be transitioned into the first.
#'
#' @section Label variables:
#' `transition_states` makes the following variables available for string
#' literal interpretation, in addition to the general ones provided by
#' [animate()]:
#'
#' - **transitioning** is a boolean indicating whether the frame is part of the
#'   transitioning phase
#' - **previous_state** The name of the last state the animation was at
#' - **closest_state** The name of the state closest to this frame
#' - **next_state** The name of the next state the animation will be part of
#'
#' @section Object permanence:
#' `transition_states` uses the group aesthetic of each layer to identify
#' which rows in the input data correspond to the same graphic element and will
#' therefore define which elements will turn into each other between states.
#' The group aesthetic, if not set, will be calculated from the interaction of all
#' discrete aesthetics in the layer (excluding `label`), so it is often better
#' to set it explicitly when animating, to make sure your data is interpreted in
#' the right way. If the group aesthetic is not set, and no discrete aesthetics
#' exists then all rows will have the same group. If the group aesthetic is not
#' unique in each state, then rows will be matched first by group and then by
#' index. Unmatched rows will appear/disappear, potentially using an enter or
#' exit function.
#'
#' @section Computed Variables:
#' It is possible to use variables calculated by the statistic to define the
#' transition. Simply inclose the variable in `stat()` in the same way as when
#' using computed variables in aesthetics.
