additional arguments to control how matching between
data and tree (see Details section of
phylo4d-methods for more details).
tip.data
a data frame (or object to be coerced to one)
containing only tip data
node.data
a data frame (or object to be coerced to one)
containing only node data
all.data
a data frame (or object to be coerced to one)
containing both tip and node data
merge.data
if both tip.data and node.data are
provided, it determines whether columns with common names will be
merged together (default TRUE). If FALSE, columns with common
names will be preserved separately, with ".tip" and ".node"
appended to the names. This argument has no effect if
tip.data and node.data have no column names in
common.
pos
should the new data provided be bound before or
after the pre-existing data?

Details
Rules for matching data to tree nodes are identical to those used
by the phylo4d-methods constructor.
If any column names in the original data are the same as columns
in the new data, ".old" is appended to the former column names and
".new" is appended to the new column names.
The option pos is ignored (silently) if x is a
phylo4 object. It is provided for compatibility reasons.
