Load recent PM2.5 monitoring data

Wrapper function to load and combine recent data from AirNow, AIRSIS and WRCC:

airnow <- airnow_loadDaily()
airsis <- airsis_loadDaily()
wrcc <- wrcc_loadDaily()
ws_monitor <- monitor_combine(list(airnow, airsis, wrcc))

If dataDir is defined, data will be loaded from this local dirctory. Otherwise, data will be loaded from the monitoring data repository maintained by PWFSL.

The daily files loaded by this function are updated once a day, shortly after midnight and contain data for the previous 45 days.

For the most recent data, use monitor_loadLatest().

For data extended more than 45 days into the past, use monitor_load().

Currently supported parameters include the following:

1. PM2.5
