compute_p_r_cond_g

This is a utility function for performing BISG. It operates on a dataframe
obtained from the Census Bureau via the provided eiCompare helper function.

Performs Bayesian Improved Surname Geocoding (BISG) analysis to
obtain probabilistic estimates of race based on surname and geolocation.
This package can be used in tandem with the 'eiCompare' package.
Methods implemented in this package are described in Decter-Frain,
A., Sachdeva, P., Collingwood, L., Burke, J., Murayama, H.,
Barreto, M., … Zingher, J. (2022). "Comparing Methods for Estimating
Demographics in Racially Polarized Voting Analyses" <doi:10.31235/osf.io/e854z>.
