Usethis: support for binder?

[uribo]

Binder (beta) provides a reproducible execution environment based on the GitHub repository. Also, supports badges and generates a link to launch the repository in the following format:

[![Binder](https://mybinder.org/badge.svg)](https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/<user>/<repository>/master)

I think that badge display is useful for a everyone in a single report or article.
So I would like to add a use_binder_badge() function like usethis::use_lifecycle_badge().

If you are positive about this feature, can I submit a draft proposal as pull request?
What I'm thinking is adding a Dockerfile that can launch an rstudio session (use the official imagefile), if there is no Dockerfile or runtime.txt, along with the code output for the badge.

Point of clarification: are you proposing the integration of support for the binder _badge_ or binder on the whole? (No judgement either way, just trying to make sure I understand correctly 👍).

[uribo]

Thank you for your reply. I will prepare for the pull request soon.

Thanks @uribo. Can you answer the question @batpigandme posed, before proceeding? Getting a PR for a badge is pretty different than for a Dockerfile. I'm not saying the latter is necessarily unwelcome, but it's a bigger responsibility re: maintenance.

Sorry @jennybc @batpigandme

What I mentioned was a request for a function to display a binder badge.
The latter topic, I would like to discuss when usethis package will integrate with docker in the future.

OK yes I think a binder badge sounds appealing.
