[R-SIG-Mac] Update to versions GEOS 3.8.0, GDAL 3.0.4 and PROJ 7.0.0 in macOS Catalina

[Manuel Spínola]

Thank you very much Simon.

I don't know much about programming so I will keep the current versions.

I was asking because some of the main spatial packages, as sf and terra, I
think require the latest versions of gdal and proj to be completely
functional. That is my understanding, may be I am wrong.

Best,

Manuel
