Renaming this repo

Hello Vega & Vega-Lite PowerBI enthusiasts,
This is notice that we will be renaming the repository to powerbi-visuals-vega and there will be an upcoming functionality change. Instead of a hard-coded spec, end-users will be able to paste their spec into the control at design-time. We think this will be a powerful upgrade. If there are any questions or concerns, please leave a comment for further discussion. Thanks!
