build_field_lists

Given the desired fields to be returned, intelligently add an exclusion for
the data array if warranted and handle the "all" keyword. And do so without
setting both fields and fields_exclude due to fact that the API will return
wrong results if are passed. This is still posssible if the user
deliberately sets both. Not exported.

An interface to iDigBio's search API that allows downloading
specimen records. Searches are returned as a data.frame. Other functions
such as the metadata end points return lists of information. iDigBio is a US
project focused on digitizing and serving museum specimen collections on the
web. See <https://www.idigbio.org> for information on iDigBio.
