Outlined in this [conversation](https://github.com/pysal/mapclassify/issues/72) the mapclassify_bin functionality should be moved from splot into mapclassify: * [ ] Integrate [`mapclassify_bin`](https://github.com/pysal/splot/blob/2e8f13a54e71faa60c0520ea9ba7e2b30aad2629/splot/_viz_value_by_alpha_mpl.py#L400) into mapclassify. * [ ] Integrate tests into mapclassify * [ ] rename to something more meaningful * [ ] change dependencies in splot where former mapclassify_bin was needed. ToDo: Not all mapclassify classifications are currently supported, look into changing API to support all (?)
