discord: Functions for Discordant Kinship Modeling

Functions for discordant kinship modeling (and other sibling-based quasi-experimental designs). Contains data restructuring functions and functions for generating biometrically informed data for kin pairs. See [Garrison and Rodgers, 2016 <doi:10.1016/j.intell.2016.08.008>], [Sims, Trattner, and Garrison, 2024 <doi:10.3389/fpsyg.2024.1430978>] for empirical examples, and [Garrison and colleagues for theoretical work <doi:10.1101/2025.08.25.25334395>].
