Check for any matches

After a variety name match (exact or fuzzymatch), check whether there are any exact or approved matches.

check.anymatch(df, group, checkfor = NULL, match_type)

`df`	A data.frame with variety names matched to database names
`group`	A column name by which to group and search for a match (e.g. to determine if there are any matches for the variety column, use: variety)
`checkfor`	A column name to check whether there is a match (This parameter is used only for exact matching. For fuzzymatches, the status of the match must be manually entered)
`match_type`	A string that is either 'db' or 'raw', which refers to processing database entries (only one entry per cultivar) or raw entries which may have many alternate spellings for one cultivar
