finbif v0.7.0

[wkmor1]

NEW FEATURES

• New function taxon_id that returns FinBIF taxon identifiers given
  a scientific name, vernacular name or other taxon identifier.

• New filters complete_list_taxon_id and complete_list_type now
  available.

• New global option finbif_hide_progress to suppress progress bars
  when downloading, importing or processing FinBIF records.

• For the sake of clarity and consistency the term "administrative
  status" is now refered to as "regulatory status" throughout.

• Regulatory status, informal taxonomic group and habitat data are now
  localised.

• Option unlist added to finbif_occurrence that casts list columns
  to strings. If a cell has multiple values the values are cast to a
  string separated by semi-colons.

• New argument facts added to finbif_occurrence that can be used
  to automatically extract facts when downloading occurrence records.

BUG FIXES

• Fixed bug triggered by incorrect data type applied to
  taxonomic_order.

• Fixed bug preventing locale switching of vernacular name data.
