libipldr: R Bindings to the 'Rust' 'IPLD' Library

Provides R bindings to decode DAG-CBOR (Directed Acyclic Graph Concise Binary Object Representation) encoded data, CIDs (Content Identifiers), and CAR (Content Addressable aRchive) files using the 'Rust' 'IPLD' (InterPlanetary Linked Data) library <https://github.com/ipld/libipld>. This is especially useful for working with data from 'IPFS' (InterPlanetary File System) and 'AtProto' (Bluesky) applications.
