Specify minimum RStudio version #10

The pre-work recommended getting the latest versions of R (3.5+) and RStudio (with no minimum version mentioned). It seems that having the Terminal (available in 1.1+) is critical; can it be made clear that is the oldest viable version for this workshop?

I get that ideally we'd all be working with the latest versions, but for those of us stuck behind layers of IT bureaucracy it's not always so simple.

I am guessing the workshop touches newer features of RStudio elsewhere as well, and am not sure what the exact lower bound on versions is. Maybe we can note that <1.1 definitely will not work but reiterate the strong suggestion to update to the latest for the best experience.

Closing this as we repeatedly encourage people to use an up to date version
