Description: Search, filter, total and download the Australian
        government open data republished at <https://publicdata.au/>,
        where every version of a dataset is kept at a URL that never
        changes. Rows and totals come from the site's query API as
        typed, labelled 'tibble' data frames, and whole tables from its
        files in any of twelve formats. Map layers come as 'sf'
        objects, and rows that carry the code of an area join to the
        Australian Bureau of Statistics boundaries in one call. The
        'DuckDB' file of any version can be attached over the web and
        queried in place with 'DBI' or 'dplyr'. Downloads can be kept
        in a cache, since a version never changes, the changes between
        versions are listed row by row, and the source file, fetch time
        and checksum of every version are on record. Every answer
        carries the version it came from and the attribution the
        publisher's licence requires, and citations come as 'BibTeX'.
        Any dataset the site serves works by its slug, so a new dataset
        needs no new release.
