#' @description
#' Save a mapview or leaflet map as \code{.html} index file or \code{.png},
#' \code{.pdf}, or \code{.jpeg} image.
#'
#' @details
#' mapshot uses \code{\link[webshot]{webshot}} from the webshot package.
#' mapshot2 uses \code{\link[webshot2]{webshot}} from the webshot2 package.
#'
#' mapshot can be used to save both leaflet and mapview maps as html or png
#' files or both. In theory, it should also work for any and all other htmlwidgets
#' but has not been tested extensively for other htmlwidgets.
#'
#' In case you want to save larger maps mapshot is likely to fail. You can try
#' setting \code{selfcontained = FALSE} to avoid errors and create a valid
#' local html file.
#'
#' @param x \code{mapview} or \code{leaflet} object (or any other hmtlwidget).
#' @param url Output \code{.html} file. If not supplied and 'file' is specified,
#'   a temporary index file will be created.
#' @param file Output \code{.png}, \code{.pdf}, or \code{.jpeg} file.
#' @param remove_controls \code{character} vector of control buttons to be removed
#'   from the map when saving to file. Any combination of
#'   "zoomControl", "layersControl", "homeButton", "scaleBar", "drawToolbar",
#'   "easyButton". If set to \code{NULL} nothing will be removed. Ignord if \code{x}
#'   is not a mapview or leaflet map.
#' @param ... Further arguments passed on to \code{\link[htmlwidgets]{saveWidget}}
#'   and/or \code{\link[webshot]{webshot}}.
