Adjustment of functions

[tnaake]

Hi @michaelwitting

this PR makes the wormLipidPredictR repo a bit more package line.

The PR introduces a central function create_reaction to create the reactions. The type of reaction is specified by a argument, reaction.

It further introduces:

• checks for arguments (reaction and substrates)
• various helper function that separate the steps within create_reaction for the different reaction types - these were previously included in the individual functions
• some speed ups and simplifications when gsub-ing the characters,
• smaller fixes of typos and bugs.

Please let me know if this looks good to you!

Next steps IMO would be (to be discussed further):

• unit tests,
• generalisability to other species,
• returning the substrates/products in columns next to the reaction (to use this information for subsequent analysis)

Best, Thomas

Hi @tnaake ,

thank for the PR. I will now merge it and run on my PC to check how works. Looks already much more sophisticated than my code.
