natcpp 0.3.0

• add weighted Jaccard similarity functions for sparse data
  • c_weighted_jaccard_sparse() returns a sparse similarity (or distance) matrix
  • c_weighted_jaccard_dense() returns a dense matrix or a dist-layout vector
  • both run in parallel via RcppThread, with an optional progress bar (RcppProgress)
  • triangle= switches between symmetric upper-triangle output and a full matrix
  • distance= returns 1 - similarity
• portable src/Makevars using $(SHLIB_OPENMP_CXXFLAGS) in place of a GNU make $(shell ...) callout to RcppThread::LdFlags()
