[Feature / Suggestion] Use `tibble` over `data.frame` for `gh_list_packages()` #43

Hi, thank you for this very nice package.

I suppose you want to keep the dependencies to a minimum? If not a small suggestion. I think its pretty favorable to showcase the output of gh_list_packages() as a tibble instead of a data.frame, as this massive amount of data just gets unreadable with the formatting in the console for a data.frame

However the link seems to be broken (and incomplete)
