 BUG FIXES
-  o import xts to prevent xts functions from being masked.
-  o ls_instruments_by() checks for NA to avoid an error.
-  o force evaluation of arguments to CompareInstrumentEnvironment()
-  o option_series.yahoo() checks the results of the call to 
-    quantmod::getOptionChain() and only uses rows that contain the ticker Symbol
-    (sometimes in the off-hours, yahoo includes a bad row)
-  o update_instruments.morningstar is slightly more robust.  It no longer 
-    depends on the relevant table being the 4th on the page; instead it uses
-    the table with the most rows.
