These convenience functions are similar to lapply
except that they return a list of class "solist" or
"anylist". In both functions, the result is computed by
lapply(X, FUN, ...).
In anylapply the result is converted to a list of class
"anylist" and returned.
In solapply the result is converted to
a list of class "solist" if possible, using
as.solist. If this is not possible,
then the behaviour depends on the argument demote.
If demote=TRUE the result will be returned as a
list of class "anylist". If demote=FALSE (the default),
an error occurs.
