negativeBinomial

Reconstruct family object for negative binomial type 2 (NB2) with fixed
scale parameter theta. Analogous to <code><a href="/link/negative.binomial?package=WALS&version=0.2.5" data-mini-rdoc="WALS::negative.binomial">negative.binomial</a></code> in
<code>MASS</code> mass2002WALS but <code>MASS</code> uses non-canonical link.

Implements Weighted-Average Least Squares model averaging
for negative binomial regression models of Huynh (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2404.11324>,
generalized linear models of De Luca, Magnus, Peracchi (2018)
<doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2017.12.007> and linear regression models of
Magnus, Powell, Pruefer (2010) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2009.07.004>, see also
Magnus, De Luca (2016) <doi:10.1111/joes.12094>. Weighted-Average Least Squares
for the linear regression model is based on the original 'MATLAB' code by
Magnus and De Luca <https://www.janmagnus.nl/items/WALS.pdf>, see also
Kumar, Magnus (2013) <doi:10.1007/s13571-013-0060-9> and
De Luca, Magnus (2011) <doi:10.1177/1536867X1201100402>.
