pT.setDimInfo

A mortalityTable can store additional information to be used e.g. as additional
dimensions in ggplot calls. Typically, these information include sex, base
population, observation year, type of data (raw, smoothed), country, type of
risk, etc. These additional dimensions are stored in the <code>tbl@data</code> list
and will be used by plotMortalityTables and similar functions.
<code>pT.setDimInfo</code> works just like <code>mT.setDimInfo</code>, except that it sets
the information for all sub-tables of the pension table at the same time.

Classes to implement, analyze and plot cohort life tables
for actuarial calculations. Birth-year dependent cohort mortality
tables using a yearly trend to extrapolate from a base year are implemented,
as well as period life table, cohort life tables using an age shift, and
merged life tables. Additionally, several data sets from various countries
are included to provide widely-used tables out of the box.
