Will likely require a major version bump, and depends on https://github.com/d3/d3-geo/issues/152 so that users can easily combine with non-projected data. Should probably be combined with #34.

Per discussion in d3/d3-geo#152, this could alternatively be made available as a separate file (counties-albers-pr-10m.json) so that users can opt-in to geoAlbersUsaPr if desired. However, I’ll note that U.S. territories (Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) are already included in the non-projected files (e.g., counties-10m.json).

Do we have a timeline for the albersUsaPr to become available. I'm working with map data that I have to supply actively, so can't fall back onto the above mentioned files. This would be the perfect projection for what I need.
