Web scraping curated map data #6

One of the most used functions in raquamaps is the function that allows access to curated maps (by scraping from aquamaps.org), it feels like that function might belong in this package.

https://github.com/raquamaps/raquamaps/blob/master/R/scrape.r

A couple of patches have been provided by users to this function, but haven't yet been incorporated, which would be needed, as well as more testing to make this stable and report errors better if encountered.
