RcppBDT: 'Rcpp' Bindings for the Boost Date_Time Library

Access to Boost Date_Time functionality for dates, durations (both for days and date time objects), time zones, and posix time ('ptime') is provided by using 'Rcpp modules'. The posix time implementation can support high-resolution of up to nano-second precision by using 96 bits (instead of 64 with R) to present a 'ptime' object (but this needs recompilation with a #define set).
