ducklake: Interact with 'DuckLake' from R

A 'tidyverse'-friendly interface to 'DuckLake' <https://ducklake.select/>, the 'DuckDB' lakehouse format. Attach versioned data lakes from R and work with them using familiar 'dplyr' verbs, with support for ACID transactions, time travel queries, snapshot audit trails, data inlining, encrypted storage, multiple catalog backends ('DuckDB', 'PostgreSQL', 'SQLite', 'MySQL'), and remote access over the 'Quack' protocol from 'DuckDB'.
