Add notes about garbage zip codes to documentation #31

For example, in rads.data::spatial_zip_city_region_scc we have 98158 and 98132, but they are not in rads.data::misc_poverty_groups or rads.data::spatial_zip_to_hra20_pop • 98158 is just for SEATAC airport, so no one should live there … it is an invalid residence zip code • 98132 is not a valid zip code according to the USPS (which is who creates / maintains zip codes). I think it used to exist, but was retired (but I’m not sure about that).

This was added to a new 'Zany ZIP codes' section in the Analysis Guide.
