update quat(::Array) to return Array{<:Quaternion} (#95)

* add docsting to quat

* update quat(::Array) to return Array{<:Quaternion}

* remove deprecated methods such as `Quaternion(s::Real, a::AbstractVector)`

* update tests

* bump version to v0.7.0

* fix jldoctest

* fix docstring

* fix docstring

* Remove unnecessary `quat` method
