Extends calculate_th() with an extra output (prediction error) useful for calculating the target height range
growthscreener 1.22.0
Extends the calculate_th() function with a support_missing_hgtf argument to allow for the calculation of target height from only the mother’s height. This is useful when height from the biological father height is missing. It currently works only for Dutch populations. If mother’s height is missing, the function will return NA, as before.
Adds a silent safety trim of input arguments of calculate_th() to scalar values. This is to prevent the function from breaking when the input is a vector of length > 1. The function will now only use the first element of the input vector.
Adds functions hermanussencole() and targetheight() from the chartdesigner package. In contrast to calculate_th() these functions are vectorised, so more suited for group applications rather than individual application.

Merges srm branch updates (v1.19.3) into main
Undo the choice for weight for height guidelines for period 0-2 years throughout (made SvB 13jul20) This choice causes issues in practice as our advice does not line up with what the professional sees on their own diagrams. Sticking with 2012 guidelines even if they are inconsistent.
