So just to be sure I'm not missing anything, what will happen to installation from "https://rpolars.r-universe.dev"? Will it be removed?

Close #1151
Related to #1152, I hope to be able to use GitHub pre-releases in the future to install rewritten versions of the polars package from the rpolars repo.
r-multivese is always tied to the latest release, but rpolars repo can be tied to specific git tag, so pre-releases are ignored by r-multivesre and only rpolars can be updated.
(of course, we will need to call for a switch in installation approach on the NEWS file before that can happen).
Background
@shikokuchuo says that the R-multiverse community universe (https://community.r-multiverse.org/builds) is ready for use, but will not be actively promoted until the production universe (https://production.r-multiverse.org/builds) is complete.
