Improvements to the book and the presentation #20

Hi all,

In this pull request, I solve issues #19, #18, #17, and part of #3. In summary, this PR adds modifications that:

The hierarchical clustering portion still needs considerable improvement in the presentation. This should not be complicated to repair given that the book now offers a detailed explanation of these algorithms.

The PCoA, CA, and NMDS need a very good makeover in both the presentation and the book. However, following up on previous discussions, I think it would be good to consider splitting this workshop in two. The introduction, dissimilarity measures, transformations and the PCA parts are really good and provide a detailed overview of these methods while explaining how to use R at the same time. With the improvement required for the clustering part, it will leave almost no space for the CA, PCoA, and NMDS parts to have a similar level of detail.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any comments about this PR.

Talk to you soon!
