Allow user to specify working directory for RScript? #30

the behaviour of RScript can depend on a working directory (e.g. for a .Renviron that may contain credentials needed, etc). Of course we can construct our commands from scratch and add them with cron_add(), but it would be great if cron_rscript() could support an argument of workdir that would add a cd workdir before evaluating Rscript. If this sounds reasonable to you I'd be happy to prepare a PR.

Good point. Allows to pass on different environment variables and settings. Feel free to create a PR
