checkUpdates

check whether the DWD has updated historical datasets.
That requires <code>updateIndexes</code> to be run by me.
If that is the case, the funtion will give a warning, otherwise a message.

Handle climate data from the 'DWD' ('Deutscher Wetterdienst', see
<https://www.dwd.de/EN/climate_environment/cdc/cdc_node_en.html> for more information).
Choose observational time series from meteorological stations with 'selectDWD()'.
Find raster data from radar and interpolation according to <https://bookdown.org/brry/rdwd/raster-data.html>.
Download (multiple) data sets with progress bars and no re-downloads through 'dataDWD()'.
Read both tabular observational data and binary gridded datasets with 'readDWD()'.
