Description

Recent PR #292 shows that we heavily rely on `{usethis}` and only pretend we can work without it. At this point, I see no particular reason to not depend on `{usethis}` and drop all hacks that we have in place.

Research direction

Start by reviewing PR #292 and the current workarounds for operating without {usethis}. Identify the hacks that can be removed and the dependency changes required; done means rextendr consistently depends on {usethis} and those workarounds are gone.
