This PR adds two new functions, get_table_layer() and get_layer_info(). The first one is the main function of the PR, and the second one is just a helper function I think might as well be exposed.
The motivation for get_table_layer() is that I wanted to pull a "Table" from ArcGIS Online.
get_table_layer(
"https://www.portlandmaps.com/arcgis/rest/services/Public/COP_OpenData_ARPA/MapServer/1352",
head = TRUE
)
The other function, get_layer_info(), pulls the layer metadata from its "ArcGIS REST Services Directory" page. The code for this function is just what was already in the top of get_spatial_layer(), but since I also needed that code for get_table_layer() I separated it out into its own function.
This PR also updates some of the documentation to match the roxygen2 comments (I just ran devtools::document()).

get_spatial_layer()can't retrieve it.Example code pulling the above table:
