Description: An Engine for simulation of stochastic models. Includes
        support for running stochastic models in parallel, either with
        shared or varying parameters. Simulations are run efficiently
        in compiled code and can be run with a fraction of simulated
        states returned to R, allowing control over memory usage.
        Support is provided for building bootstrap particle filter for
        performing Sequential Monte Carlo (e.g., Gordon et al. 1993
        <doi:10.1049/ip-f-2.1993.0015>). The core of the simulation
        engine is the 'xoshiro256**' algorithm (Blackman and Vigna
        <arXiv:1805.01407>), and the package is further described in
        FitzJohn et al 2021 <doi:10.12688/wellcomeopenres.16466.2>.
