Package 'abseil'

Title: 'C++' Header Files and Compiled Library from 'Abseil'
Description: Wraps the 'Abseil' 'C++' library for use by R packages. Provides both header files and a compiled static library ('libabsl.a') so that downstream packages can link non-header-only 'Abseil' components without recompiling the library themselves. Original files are from <https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp>. Patches are located at <https://github.com/doccstat/abseil-r/tree/main/local/patches>.
