update documentation
Don't run expensive examples

Needed for crane check
admin1.region support

data.frame and function to access.
Get to UTF-8 encoding without mucking up stuff

In particular, the funny o in Hyogo ken was messed up before.

Note: this checkin breaks things like admin1.regions, etc.

Might still want to call iconv on the names to get “Hyogo” to be
“Hyogo” without the funny o.
