Read ABS geographic data

Description

Read ABS geographic data as sf objects from the [absmapsdata](https://github.com/wfmackey/absmapsdata) package.

Arguments

name	a character string containing absmapsdata file names in [area][year] format, eg "sa42016"; "gcc2021". See full list at https://github.com/wfmackey/absmapsdata. Note: if name is entered, then area and year values will be ignored.
area	a character string containing the concise absmapsdata area names, eg "sa4"; "gcc". See full list at https://github.com/wfmackey/absmapsdata.
year	a character string or numeric of the full source year of absmapsdata object, eg "2016"; 2021. See full list at https://github.com/wfmackey/absmapsdata.
remove_year_suffix	logical defaulting to FALSE. If TRUE, 'strip_year_suffix' is run before returning the object, removing the '_year' suffix from variable names.
export_dir	path to a directory to store the desired sf object. tempdir() by default.
.validate_name	logical defaulting to TRUE, which checks the name input (or area year combination) against a list of available objects in the absmapsdata package.
