qlcData: Processing Data for Quantitative Language Comparison

Functionality to read, recode, and transcode data as used in quantitative language comparison, specifically to deal with multilingual orthographic variation (Moran & Cysouw (2018) <doi:10.5281/zenodo.1296780>) and with the recoding of nominal data.
