align_first_observation
align_by_first_observation(observation_one, observation_two, custom_table)
a vector of plant functional types, or species. Provides species/pft names.
another vector of plant functional types, or species. Provides the order.
a table that either maps two pft's to one another or maps custom species codes to bety id codes. In the second case, must be passable to match_species_id.
vector
Returns a vector of PFT's/species from observation_one that matches the order of observation_two
