rmet: Download and Read Brazilian Meteorological Data from INMET

Automates the download and processing of historical weather data from the Brazilian National Institute of Meteorology (INMET). It resolves formatting inconsistencies in raw CSV files across different years, removes structural artifacts, standardizes column names, converts timestamps to local Brazilian time zones, and outputs tidy data frames ready for analysis. Data are retrieved from <https://portal.inmet.gov.br/dadoshistoricos>.
