In AdamCottrill/glfishr: Fetch fisheries assessment data from the FN Portal

#' Get Gear List from the FN_Portal API
#'
#'  This function returns basic details about fishing gear(s) from the
#'  FN_Prortal api. Use get_gear_process_types() for more detail about
#'  the corresponding process type
#'
#' Use \code{show_filters("gear")} to see the full list of available
#' filter keys (query parameters). Refer to
#' \url{https://intra.glis.mnr.gov.on.ca/fn_portal/api/v1/swagger/}
#' and filter by "gear" for additional information.
#'
#' @param filter_list list
#' @param show_id When 'FALSE', the default, the 'id' and 'slug'
#' fields are hidden from the data frame. To return these columns
#' as part of the data frame, use 'show_id = TRUE'.
#' @param to_upper - should the names of the dataframe be converted to
#' upper case?
