Some bugfixes and more flexible concentration lengths

description

• Fixed unintended behaviour in plot_effect() and plot_stress() where supplying an empty vector caused the four standard curves to show. Now setting which to an empty vector or NULL shows just the axes. The default value is NA.
• Renamed the mixture_effect column in the predict_mixture output data frame to effect.
• Remove the restriction that the concentration vectors in predict_mixture() must be the same length. The longer length must be a multiple of the shorter length because the shorter vector gets recycled to the longer length.
• Modify gitlab_ci to give verbose package installation output. And remove the check for the previous R version because somehow drc and plotrix are not available there.
