#' A reticulate Engine for Knitr
#'
#' This provides a `reticulate` engine for `knitr`, suitable for usage when
#' attempting to render Python chunks. Using this engine allows for shared state
#' between Python chunks in a document -- that is, variables defined by one
#' Python chunk can be used by later Python chunks.
#'
#' The engine can be activated by setting (for example)
#'
#' ```
#' knitr::knit_engines$set(python = reticulate::eng_python)
#' ```
#'
#' Typically, this will be set within a document's setup chunk, or by the
#' environment requesting that Python chunks be processed by this engine.
#' Note that `knitr` (since version 1.18) will use the `reticulate` engine by
#' default when executing Python chunks within an R Markdown document.
#'
#' @param options
#'   Chunk options, as provided by `knitr` during chunk execution.
#'
#' @section Supported `knitr` chunk options:
#'
#' For most options, reticulate's python engine behaves the same as the default
#' R engine included in knitr, but they might not support all the same features.
#' Options in *italic* are equivalent to knitr, but with modified behavior.
#'
#' - *`eval`* (`TRUE`, logical): If `TRUE`, all expressions in the chunk are evaluated. If `FALSE`,
#'   no expression is evaluated. Unlike knitr's R engine, it doesn't support numeric
#'   values indicating the expressions to evaluate.
#' - *`echo`* (`TRUE`, logical): Whether to display the source code in the output document. Unlike
#'   knitr's R engine, it doesn't support numeric values indicating the expressions
#'   to display.
#' - `results` (`'markup'`, character): Controls how to display the text results. Note that this option only
#'   applies to normal text output (not warnings, messages, or errors). The behavior
#'   should be identical to knitr's R engine.
#' - `collapse` (`FALSE`, logical): Whether to, if possible, collapse all the source and output blocks
#'   from one code chunk into a single block (by default, they are written to separate blocks).
#'   This option only applies to Markdown documents.
#' - `error` (`TRUE`, logical): Whether to preserve errors. If `FALSE` evaluation stops
#'   on errors. (Note that RMarkdown sets it to `FALSE`).
#' - *`warning`* (`TRUE`, logical): Whether to preserve warnings in the output. If FALSE, all warnings
#'   will be suppressed. Doesn't support indices.
#' - `include` (`TRUE`, logical): Whether to include the chunk output in the output document.
#'   If `FALSE`, nothing will be written into the output document, but the code is still
#'   evaluated and plot files are generated if there are any plots in the chunk, so you
#'   can manually insert figures later.
#' - `dev`: The graphical device to generate plot files. See knitr documentation for
#'    additional information.
#' - `base.dir` (`NULL`; character): An absolute directory under which the plots
#'    are generated.
#' - `strip.white` (TRUE; logical): Whether to remove blank lines in the beginning
#'   or end of a source code block in the output.
#' - `dpi` (72; numeric): The DPI (dots per inch) for bitmap devices (dpi * inches = pixels).
#' - `fig.width`, `fig.height` (both are 7; numeric): Width and height of the plot
#'   (in inches), to be used in the graphics device.
#' - `label`: The chunk label for each chunk is assumed to be unique within the
#'   document. This is especially important for cache and plot filenames, because
#'   these filenames are based on chunk labels. Chunks without labels will be
#'   assigned labels like unnamed-chunk-i, where i is an incremental number.
#'
#' ### Python engine only options
#'
#' - **`jupyter_compat`** (FALSE, logical): If `TRUE` then, like in Jupyter notebooks,
#'   only the last expression in the chunk is printed to the output.
#' - **`out.width.px`**, **`out.height.px`** (810, 400, both integers): Width and
#'   height of the plot in the output document, which can be different with its
#'   physical `fig.width` and `fig.height`, i.e., plots can be scaled in the output
#'   document. Unlike knitr's `out.width`, this is always set in pixels.
#' - **`altair.fig.width`**, **`altair.fig.height`**: If set, is used instead of
#'   `out.width.px` and `out.height.px` when writing Altair charts.
