Install gnparser

The command line tool written in Go, gnparser, is required to use this package.

If you want to install gnparser on your own, instructions can be found at the gnparser repo (https://github.com/gnames/gnparser)

There is a helper function in rgnparser for downloading and installing gnparser on major operating systems (macOS, Windows, Linux):

rgnparser::install_gnparser()

It installs the latest gnparser version by default, but you can specify which version to install. You can also install gnparser outside of R yourself (see above).
