check_input_event_times

Checks <code>event_times</code> and <code>event_times2</code> are of the
 appropriate class and have expected characteristics for correct calculation
 of NLTT in <code>nltt_diff_exact_extinct</code>.

Provides functions to calculate the normalised Lineage-Through-
Time (nLTT) statistic, given two phylogenetic trees. The nLTT statistic measures
the difference between two Lineage-Through-Time curves, where each curve is
normalised both in time and in number of lineages.
