tskitr: R Package providing access to the tskit C API

tskit enables performant storage, manipulation and analysis of ancestral recombination graphs using succinct tree sequence encoding; see https://tskit.dev. tskit provides Python, C, and Rust APIs. The Python API can be called from R via the reticulate package to seamlessly load and analyse tree sequences, see https://tskit.dev/tutorials/tskitr.html. tskitr provides R access to the tskit C API for use cases where the reticulate approach is not suitable. For example, where high-performance and low-level work with tree sequences is required. R access to the parts of C API is added as the need arises.
