In hrbrmstr/lodes: Retrieve Data from LEHD Origin-Destination Employment Statistics Server

lodes : Retrieve Data from LEHD Origin-Destination Employment Statistics Server

The following functions are implemented:

• read_lodes: Retrieve a LODES file/data
• read_xwalk: Retrieve geography crosswalk for a state

Both functions take a download_dir parameter and local copies of the remote files will be cached to that directory and read from vs re-downloading (be kind to servers). Remove the file if you want a fresh version.
