Update to phylo.to.map to permit use with ape's nodelabels, tiplabels, etc.

I just updated the phytools function phylo.to.map (or, more accurately, the phytools S3 method for objects of class "phylo.to.map") to permit the use of ape functions nodelabels, tiplabels, etc., by assigning the environmental variable "last_plot.phylo".

Here's a quick demo using some very simple simulated data:

## first install the latest version from GitHub
library(devtools)
install_github("liamrevell/phytools")
library(phytools)
## simulate tree & data
tree<-pbtree(n=26,scale=100,tip.label=LETTERS)
lat<-fastBM(tree,sig2=10,bounds=c(-90,90))
long<-fastBM(tree,sig2=80,bounds=c(-180,180))
obj<-phylo.to.map(tree,cbind(lat,long))

## add nodelabels
nodelabels()

Note that if rotate=TRUE in phylo.to.map (the default) the tree may have been rotated and consequently the node labels may not match the node indices in the original input tree!

Here's another example of a use:

obj
## Object of class "phylo.to.map" containing:
## 
## (1) A phylogenetic tree with 26 tips and 25 internal nodes.
## 
## (2) A geographic map with range:
##      -85.19N, 83.6N
##      -180W, 180W.
## 
## (3) A table containing 26 geographic coordinates.
par(fg=grey(0.4))
plot(obj,colors="black",ftype="off",lwd=1,lty="dotted",ylim=c(-90,100))
tiplabels(pch=19,col="red")
points(obj$coords[,2:1],col="red",pch=19)

plot of chunk unnamed-chunk-3

Or something like this. Well, at least it adds some flexibility.
