Implemented through this commit. austraits functions work with the updated output structure, although it will eventually be necessary to update austraits tests. |

As described [here](#192), the `BibType ` associated with a dataset is used by the R package `RefManageR` to process the references, but is not displayed anywhere within the traits.build database. A column recording the BibType of the primary citation is now included within the reference table. This change has not effected any dataset metadata.yml files, but is simply capturing and outputting data that was already documented in them. Note that `austraits` functions still work and the function `extract_data` lets you filter data based on `BibType`.

As described here, it would be useful for traits.build database users to be able to filter data based on citation type (e.g. Unpublished, Database, Article, Online, Thesis). This information is documented within the metadata files and is interpreted by RefManageR functions (WriteBib, asBibEntry), but is not currently documented in any field within the traits.build database structure. During the reading of the dataset metadata.yml files this information should be documented in a column within the methods table for easy filtering.
Thanks to @bmedlyn for catching this omission.
