Defines functions install_dev

Documented in install_dev

#' Install the development version of a package
#'
#' `install_dev()` retrieves the package DESCRIPTION from the CRAN mirror and
#' looks in the 'URL' and 'BugReports' fields for GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket
#' URLs. It then calls the appropriate `install_()` function to install the
#' development package.
#'
#' @param package The package name to install.
#' @param cran_url The URL of the CRAN mirror to use, by default based on the
#'   'repos' option. If unset uses 'https://cloud.r-project.org'.
#' @param ... Additional arguments passed to [install_github()],
#'   [install_gitlab()], or [install_bitbucket()] functions.
#' @family package installation
