Columns for id, dam and sire are mandatory. This function checks that they are named in the pedigree. The function works with arbitrary column names (not 'id', 'dam' and 'sire') to work with ped_rename()
check_names(ped, id_name = "id", dam_name = "dam", sire_name = "sire")
No return value. Will print an error message if checking fail.
