.Rproj file #698

@cansavvy Since I wasn't involved in the original development of OTTR, I am confused about why the OTTR template doesn't have an .Rproj file? All the source code for the bookdown examples I've seen on the bookdown website contain .Rproj files.

Having .Rproj files makes it so much easier to follow a project-oriented workflow using RStudio, which comes with it a bundled version of Pandoc. I just ran bookdown::render_book() inside VSCode, and it failed to compile the book because it doesn't come with it Pandoc or just doesn't have the updated version of Pandoc.
