Description

@bgoodri @andrjohns @hsbadr Should we deprecate all the ggplot functions in rstan? Maybe in conjunction with the release of 2.26 or another future version? The ggplot functions in rstan were added before bayesplot existed and I'm not sure if there's any reason to keep supporting both. We could deprecate and point users to bayesplot. Thoughts?

Research direction

Review rstan's ggplot functions and their relationship to bayesplot; the issue names no files or tests, so first establish the full function scope and intended release target. Done would be an agreed deprecation plan, with users directed to bayesplot if the project decides to proceed.
