findSVI - findSVI 0.1.2

• Wrapping data retrieval and SVI calculation, find_svi() supports multiple entries of year-state pairs.

• get_census_data() (and find_svi()) uses zcta-state crosswalks to support state-specific ZCTA-level data retrieval from 2019-2021. (This functionality is supported by tidycensus::get_acs() until 2019 as Census Bureau no longer makes ZCTA shapefiles available by state.)

• get_svi() replicates results from CDC/ATSDR SVI database by matching number of decimals (#12).

• More user-friendly CLI error messages in the functions (#3, #4, #7).
