get.var

This function was written because a few of the estimator functions
need to use weights, and there are several cases to handle:
the user could pass in a column name, a vector of weights, or
nothing (in which case, the weights should default to 1 for each
row in the dataset). For the special case of getting weights, look
at the curried function <code>get.weights()</code>

internal

Implements different kinds of bootstraps
to estimate sampling variation from survey data with
complex designs. Includes the rescaled bootstrap
described in Rust and Rao (1996) <doi:10.1177/096228029600500305> and
Rao and Wu (1988) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1988.10478591>.
