Create and manipulate numeric list ('nlist') objects.  An
'nlist' is an S3 list of uniquely named numeric objects.  An numeric
object is an integer or double vector, matrix or array.  An 'nlists'
object is a S3 class list of 'nlist' objects with the same names,
dimensionalities and typeofs.  Numeric list objects are of interest
because they are the raw data inputs for analytic engines such as
'JAGS', 'STAN' and 'TMB'.  Numeric lists objects, which are useful for
storing multiple realizations of of simulated data sets, can be
converted to coda::mcmc and coda::mcmc.list objects.
