This function scales a tree with a mapped discrete character to an arbitrary total height, preserving the relative time spent in each state along each edge.

other arguments, such as depth.
A phylogenetic tree in modified "phylo" format.
Replaces rescaleTree (now rescale.phylo) in the 'geiger' package for SIMMAP style trees.
