subset_simulation

Given a simulation, creates a new simulation that is a subset of the
preexisting simulation. Does not save this new one to file. To do so,
first change the name (and, potentially, label) of the simulation
and then use <code>save_simulation</code>. If you call
<code>save_simulation</code> before changing the name, you will overwrite
the preexisting simulation. Use <code>rename</code> and
<code>relabel</code>.

A framework for performing simulations such as those common in
methodological statistics papers. The design principles of this package
are described in greater depth in Bien, J. (2016) "The simulator: An Engine
to Streamline Simulations," which is available at <arXiv:1607.00021>.
