Description: 'Tskit' enables efficient storage, manipulation, and analysis
    of ancestral recombination graphs (ARGs) using succinct tree sequence
    encoding. The tree sequence encoding of an ARG is described in Wong et
    al. (2024) <doi:10.1093/genetics/iyae100>, while `tskit` project is
    described in Jeffrey et al. (2026) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2602.09649>.
    See also <https://tskit.dev> for project news, documentation, and
    tutorials. 'Tskit' provides 'Python', 'C', and 'Rust' application
    programming interfaces (APIs). The 'Python' API can be called from 'R' via
    the 'reticulate' package to load and analyse tree sequences as
    described at <https://tskit.dev/tutorials/tskitr.html>. 'RcppTskit'
    provides 'R' access to the 'tskit C' API for cases where the
    'reticulate' option is not optimal; for example, high-performance or
    low-level work with tree sequences. Currently, 'RcppTskit' provides a
    limited set of 'R' functions because the 'Python' API and 'reticulate'
    already covers most needs.
