replace the search function with NCBI's Entrez API call to return str… #17

Closed mikaeldusenne closed 5 years ago

returns a data.frame containing results similar to the NCBI's page, using the Entrez API (E-utils). Also prints the url like the old function (not disruptive, but maybe redundant?)

NB in the future we might consider moving some part of the code to an Entrez requester module and make it usable for other types of requests, and separate the code specific to "dbgap.search" from the more general part.
