[DOCS] - Query for 'xts' NEWS information shows up to version 0.7-5 #416

Closed cgiachalis closed 4 months ago

Description

Running news(package = "xts") will show the news information up to version 0.7-5.

This is because from the next version v0.8-0, the header version was changed from “Changes in version” to “Changed in version”.

From ?news() and for plain text ...Entries are grouped according to version, with version header “Changes in version” at the beginning of a line..

In addition, since v0.8-0 the news files (plain text) is mixed with markdown heading levels.

Perhaps, the NEWS can be converted to NEWS.md for more flexibility; I can send a PR for review if you want this change.

Thanks
