Currently v3 of PrettyTables cannot be tested together with the latest version of DataFrames.
In this PR I have added some modifications that remedy this situation. This fix is not perfect, some arguments in the text backend get lost, because I couldn't find out how to treat them properly.
I am aware that this is compromising the new type system, but maybe it's something that can be applied for the first version of v3 for a transition period, as this will certainly affect more packages than DataFrames.
@ronisbr Happy to hear what you think.

Hi @hhaensel !

No, we cannot do this. PrettyTables v3 has a completely different API. We need to finish v3, tag it, and update DataFrames to become compatible. In the mean time, PrettyTables v3 will not be able to be used at the same time with DataFrames. Unfortunately, Julia packaging system does not allow for loading two versions of the same package at the same time.

Fair enough, thanks for commenting. I read that integration with DataFrames is advancing, so looking forward to seeing the final implementation 😄
