gdalraster: Bindings to the 'Geospatial Data Abstraction Library' Raster API

Interface to the raster API of the 'Geospatial Data Abstraction Library' ('GDAL') supporting manual creation of uninitialized datasets, creation from existing raster as template, low level I/O, configuration of virtual raster (VRT), coordinate transformation, and access to 'gdalwarp' for reprojection. Convenience functions facilitate working with spatial reference systems. Calling signatures resemble the native C, C++ and Python APIs provided by the 'GDAL' project (<https://gdal.org>). Bindings to 'GDAL' are implemented in class 'GDALRaster' along with several stand-alone functions. Additional functionality includes: class 'RunningStats' for efficient summary statistics on large data streams; class 'CmbTable' for counting unique combinations of integer values with a hash table; a raster overlay utility to identify and count unique combinations across multiple inputs; and a calculation utility for evaluating an R expression on raster layers with pixel coordinates available as variables. 'gdalraster' may be suitable for applications that primarily need low-level raster I/O, explicit manipulation of VRT format, or prefer native 'GDAL'-like calling. Additional functionality is somewhat aimed at thematic data analysis but may have other utility.
