docs: Creates a pandas ready dict with each row a different citation the contained Records and columns containing the original string, year, journal, author's name and the number of times it occured.
  
          There are also options to filter the output citations with _field_ and _values_
  
          # Parameters
  
          _field_ : `optional str`
  
          > Default `None`, if given all citations missing the named field will be dropped.
  
          _values_ : `optional str or list[str]`
  
          > Default `None`, if _field_ is also given only those citations with one of the strings given in _values_ will be included.
  
          > e.g. to get only citations from 1990 or 1991: `field = year, values = [1991, 1990]`
  
          _pandasFriendly_ : `optional bool`
  
          > Default `True`, if `False` a list of the citations will be returned instead of the more complicated pandas dict
  
          _counts_ : `optional bool`
  
          > Default `True`, if `False` the counts columns will be removed
  
          # Returns
  
          `dict`
  
          > A pandas ready dict with all the Citations
