apply_quorum

This quorum calculation implementation is called within <code>proporz()</code>, <code>biproporz()</code> and
related functions. Generally, there's no need to call <code>apply_quorum</code> directly.

Calculate seat apportionment for legislative bodies with
various methods. The algorithms include divisor or highest averages methods
(e.g. Jefferson, Webster or Adams), largest remainder methods and
biproportional apportionment.
