Generate a table of parameter identifiers and their short names

1	generate_parameter_index(cyan_connection, has_data = FALSE)

`cyan_connection`	a CyAN database connection from `connect_cyan()`
`has_data`	a logical indicating whether to limit the parameter list to only those parameters that have data populated in the database

a data frame of parameter identifiers and their associated short names

#Connect to the example database bundled with CyAN
path <- system.file("extdata", "example.db", package = "CyAN")
db_connection <- connect_cyan(path)
#Generate the parameter index
parameter_index <- generate_parameter_index(db_connection)
#Limit the index to the parameters that have data
parameter_index_hasdata <- generate_parameter_index(db_connection, has_data = TRUE)
