Create a function to compact ids #103

If DwC data is used, it has ids provided by the service with their own ids. At times id provided by other data providers are non numeric or too large numbers.

It will be useful for taxotools to compact these numbers and also convert them to numeric, so other functions like merge_lists do not fail.
