rbi: Interface to 'LibBi'

Provides a complete interface to 'LibBi', a library for Bayesian inference (see <https://libbi.org> and Murray, 2015 <doi:10.18637/jss.v067.i10> for more information). This includes functions for manipulating 'LibBi' models, for reading and writing 'LibBi' input/output files, for converting 'LibBi' output to provide traces for use with the coda package, and for running 'LibBi' to conduct inference.
