Dealing with Large data objects in package

[egouldo]

Presently, objects are lazy-loaded into packge, but objects are very alrge due to list-columns containing models and many data-frames... For now, decided to switch to using the qs package, as is fast and permits storign list-columns. But may wish to consider lazy-loading in the futuer...

• switch targets to store objects as qs files
• Pkg depend on qs to permit lazy loading
