Convert R Markdown to a PDF/LaTeX or thesis document in German and English

These functions serves as wrappers for the bookdown function pdf_book, with a custom Pandoc LaTeX template and different knitr default values (e.g., fig.align = "center"). It is called from the initial R Markdown template file, which should be named index.Rmd. The functions are based on the thesis_pdf function of the thesisdown package.
