New functionality for importing SDDF for round 9

[djhurio]

The SDDF for round 9 is integrated with the survey data. Which is great. However, new functionality for importing the SDDF R9 is necessary.

Expected Behavior

SDDF for round 9 can be imported using the import_sddf_country and other relevant function.

Current Behavior

The SDDF for round 9 can be imported using the import_rounds function and extracting the necessary variables.

This is getting trickier and trickier. The logic of essurvey is check whether there is some hint of SDDF data for each country/year combination and then apply some strategies for finding the link of that SDDF file and download it. For the newish rounds (> 6), we implemented the other approach of downloading the country-combined SDDF file and then filtering the country. However, this new approach of not even uploading the SDDF data breaks the entire flow for downloading SDDF data.

Do you think it's safe to assume that future rounds will follow this same structure of SDDF data coming in with the actual data?

I have asked how we are going to publish sample design variables for the round 10. I will let you know.
