Exploratory analysis for choosing mixing parameter

explore_best_mix(
  processed_data,
  cluster_number,
  range = seq(0, 0.5, 0.1),
  plot = TRUE,
  output_path = NULL
)

`processed_data`	sf; An sf object likely returned from `make_cluster_data`. Object should include the features to be clustered and their associated polygon geometries.
`cluster_number`	integer; number of clusters to be used.
`range`	numeric; optional range of mixing parameters to consider. These values are passed as the alpha parameter in `ClustGeo::hclustgeo` and `ClustGeo::choicealpha`. The values must be between 0 and 1, the default is `seq(0, 0.5, 0.1)`.
`plot`	logical; optional should plot be returned in the current graphics device (likely in RStudio). Default is TRUE.
`output_path`	string; optional path where plot should be saved. Default is NULL. If path is provided, PDFs with the names "mixing_parameters_map_k_clusters" and "mixing_parameters_plot_k_clusters" will be created, where k is the integer passed to cluster_number.

Two plots are returned. The first is the output from ClustGeo::choicealpha and the second is a faceted plot showing the field cluster results for each level of alpha in range. This information should be used to choose a value for the mixing paramters (alpha).
