lightr: Read Spectrometric Data and Metadata

Parse various reflectance/transmittance/absorbance spectra file formats to extract spectral data and metadata, as described in Gruson, White & Maia (2019) <doi:10.21105/joss.01857>. Among other formats, it can import files from 'Avantes' <https://www.avantes.com/>, 'CRAIC' <https://www.microspectra.com/>, and 'OceanOptics'/'OceanInsight' <https://www.oceanoptics.com/> brands.
