Testing Bookdown website deployment

This project used this repository as a template: https://bookdown.org/yihui/bookdown-demo/, then generally followed this article to create the GitHub action to deploy as a website.

Things I changed to .github/workflow/deploy_bookdown.yml:

• changed the branch identified at the top of the file from main to master
• updated last section, "Deploy to GitHub Pages":
  • newer version of Cecilapp/GitHub-Pages-deploy
  • GH_TOKEN to GITHUB_TOKEN
  • moved BUILD_DIR from env to with

Also note that when creating your personal access token, you need to select the box net to workflow to provide appropriate permissions.
