added ic_np for fitting NPMLE specifically (*much* faster)
switched syntax from “final_llk” to “llk” for all models

Switched to RcppEigen, rather than including static C++ library

v1.3.3 
Fixed memory access issue reported by CRAN

v1.3.2
Preparing for JSS submission
Removed unpublished algorithms and methods

v1.3.1
Imported method as reported by CRAN

v1.3.0 
getFitEsts is much faster
added predict function
added imputeCens function
added generalized gamma distribution to choice of parametric families

Fixed bug with getFitEsts
Added methods for calculating the NPMLE (univariate or bivariate)
ic_par sped up, especially for models with lots of covariates
