mpspline_est1

Estimate key parameters for building a mass-preserving spline across a single
soil profile

internal

A low-dependency implementation of GSIF::mpspline() <https://r-forge.r-project.org/scm/viewvc.php/pkg/R/mpspline.R?view=markup&revision=240&root=gsif>,
which applies a mass-preserving spline to soil attributes. Splining soil data
is a safe way to make continuous down-profile estimates of attributes measured
over discrete, often discontinuous depth intervals.
