Research direction
Search the repository for HAS_ALTREP and altrep.hpp references, then review how the compatibility code is used by the groups mentioned in the issue. Remove the obsolete definitions and references while preserving those users; done means no remaining dependency on HAS_ALTREP or altrep.hpp and the existing checks still pass.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
It is no longer useful since cpp11 requires R >=4.0.0 and always has ALTREP available, but some groups rely on it.
