Document worker run_r as a general opt-in - #214

Conversation
The run_r_mode = "worker" docs were framed for embedded/unattended hosts. Add the 'when would I choose this' guidance for any session (real wall-clock kill for hang-prone or untrusted R, crash isolation, at the cost of serialization and a separate workspace) and note the worker now starts with R's default packages (0.7.1.54), overridable via run_r_worker_options$env. Docs only.

The
run_r_mode = "worker"documentation in the configuration vignette wasframed for embedded and unattended hosts. This adds the general "when would I
choose this" guidance so any session can find it:
setTimeLimit()in the host process is unsafe), and crash isolation so asegfault or runaway allocation takes down a disposable child, not your session.
.GlobalEnv, so it is an opt-in for safety, not the interactive default.Also documents that the worker now starts with R's default packages
(
utils/stats/methods/...) as of 0.7.1.54, overridable viarun_r_worker_options$env.Docs only, no code change, no version bump.
