use_data_table

<code>use_data_table()</code> imports the <code>data.table()</code> function from the data.table
package, as well as several important symbols: <code>:=</code>, <code>.SD</code>, <code>.BY</code>, <code>.N</code>,
<code>.I</code>, <code>.GRP</code>, <code>.NGRP</code>, <code>.EACHI</code>. This is a minimal setup and you can learn
much more in the "Importing data.table" vignette:
<code>https://rdatatable.gitlab.io/data.table/articles/datatable-importing.html</code>.
In addition to importing these functions, <code>use_data_table()</code> also blocks the
usage of data.table in the <code>Depends</code> field of the <code>DESCRIPTION</code> file;
<code>data.table</code> should be used as an imported or suggested package only. See
this <a href="https://github.com/Rdatatable/data.table/issues/3076">discussion</a>.

Automate package and project setup tasks that are otherwise
performed manually. This includes setting up unit testing, test
coverage, continuous integration, Git, 'GitHub', licenses, 'Rcpp',
'RStudio' projects, and more.
