Missing an actual code example for the concept that "'Outdated' does not always mean 'will be run'" #37

The current lesson describes this in words:

https://github.com/carpentries-incubator/targets-workshop/blob/b471c640afc87d93aa04ea4c4497f8e34a55428b/episodes/lifecycle.Rmd#L192-L202

but we could actually do live coding to demonstrate.

for example, change the name of the target penguins_csv_file. This will invalidate everything downstream, but only that target will actually get run.
