Utility func to get Shannon radii for a particular coordination number.

    As the Shannon radii depends on charge state and coordination number,
    species without an entry for a particular coordination number will
    be skipped.

    Args:
        species_list (list): A list of Species to get the Shannon radii for.
        cn_roman (str): The coordination number as a roman numeral. See
            Specie.get_shannon_radius for more details.
        radius_to_compare (float, optional): If set, the data will be returned
            with a "radii_diff" key, containing the difference between the
            shannon radii and this radius.

    Returns:
        (list of dict): The Shannon radii for all Species in species. Formatted
        as a list of dictionaries, with the keys:

        - "species": The species with charge state.
        - "radius": The Shannon radius for the species.
        - "radius_diff": The difference between the Shannon radius and the
            radius_to_compare optional argument.
