The PR sets up the general framework for an R project that prepares targets for states (prepare_states), downloads relevant SOI data and saves it in the prepare_states/data/raw_data folder, and does initial exploration of SALT-related data. (The SALT-related exploration will provide useful information about whether SALT assumptions made in the prepare_cds project (for Congressional districts) are reasonable.
To come later: Much more data exploration, then creation of a base state targets file from which xx_target.csv files can be made for individual states, and documentation. This PR is simply the first step.
This PR does not change any python code.
