Generate equal-width latitudinal bins

lat_bins() was renamed to lat_bins_degrees() to be consistent with ⁠lat_bins_area().⁠

lat_bins(size = 10, min = -90, max = 90, fit = FALSE, plot = FALSE)

`size`	`numeric`. A single numeric value defining the width of the latitudinal bins. This value must be more than 0, and less than or equal to 90 (defaults to 10).
`min`	`numeric`. A single numeric value defining the lower limit of the latitudinal range (defaults to -90).
`max`	`numeric`. A single numeric value defining the upper limit of the latitudinal range (defaults to 90).
`fit`	`logical`. Should bin size be checked to ensure that the entire latitudinal range is covered? If `fit = TRUE`, bin size is set to the nearest integer which is divisible by the user-input range. If `fit = FALSE`, and bin size is not divisible into the range, the upper part of the latitudinal range will be missing.
`plot`	`logical`. Should a plot of the latitudinal bins be generated? If `TRUE`, a plot is generated. Defaults to `FALSE`.
