#' Helper functions to generate inline sparklines
#'
#' @description These functions helps you quickly generate sets of sparkline
#' style plots using base R plotting system. Currently, we support histogram
#' and boxplot. You can use them together with `column_spec` to
#' generate inline plot in tables. By default, this function will save images
#' in a folder called "kableExtra" and return the address of the file.
#'
#' @param x Vector of values or List of vectors of values.
#' @param width The width of the plot in pixel
#' @param height The height of the plot in pixel
#' @param res The resolution of the plot. Default is 300.
#' @param same_lim T/F. If x is a list of vectors, should all the plots be
#' plotted in the same range? Default is True.
#' @param lim Manually specify plotting range in the form of `c(0, 10)`.
#' @param xaxt On/Off for xaxis text
#' @param yaxt On/Off for yaxis text
#' @param ann On/Off for annotations (titles and axis titles)
#' @param col Color for the fill of the histogram bar/boxplot box.
#' @param border Color for the border.
#' @param dir Directory of where the images will be saved.
#' @param file File name. If not provided, a random name will be used
#' @param file_type Graphic device. Support `png` or `svg`. SVG is recommended
#' for HTML output
#' @param add_label For boxplot. T/F to add labels for min, mean and max.
#' @param label_digits If T for add_label, rounding digits for the label.
#' Default is 2.
#' @param boxlty Boxplot - box boarder type
#' @param medcol Boxplot - median line color
#' @param medlwd Boxplot - median line width
