sofa: Connector to 'CouchDB'

Provides an interface to the 'NoSQL' database 'CouchDB' (<https://couchdb.apache.org/>). Methods are provided for managing databases within 'CouchDB', including creating/deleting/updating/transferring, and managing documents within databases. One can connect with a local 'CouchDB' instance, or a remote 'CouchDB' database such as 'IBM Cloudant'. Documents can be inserted directly from vectors, lists, data.frames, and 'JSON'. Targeted at 'CouchDB' v2 or greater.
