Auto-format Stan models during rstan_config()? #113

Description

@andrjohns

When running the reverse-dependency checks for rstan 2.31 with the stanc3 branch for erroring on expired deprecations, the majority of dependencies are failing (mostly due to the array syntax).

Rather than requiring another extensive round of patches and submission delays, should we just run the stanc auto-formatter during the rstan_config() call? We can then also be opening issues and contacting the relevant maintainers to say that they should be updating their models, but the actual update could still progress in the interim.

Note that there's still some discussion on when the deprecations should be made into warnings, but it's still worth putting a plan together early.
