Description: The main function performs meta-analysis of genetic
        association study summary statistics that may be correlated due
        to cryptic relatedness or other confounders, generalizing
        inverse variance weighted methods.  The function that estimates
        the correlation structure is also provided standalone.  Another
        key innovation, the estimation of the correlation parameter
        from the median product of correlated standard normal
        variables, is provided, as well as a complete set of functions
        for their underlying distribution: density, cumulative,
        quantile, and random deviates.  Described in Tu and Ochoa
        (2025) <doi:10.1101/2025.05.10.653279>.
