Generate bootstrap distribution for median

When building a bootstrap distribution for a single statistic, we first generate a series of bootstrap resamples, and then record the relevant statistic (in this case, the median) of each distribution.

In this exercise, the tidyverse packages, including ggplot2 have been loaded for you, as has infer.
