Functions that compute the initial probability distribution for the states. Currently only CJS, MS models and MS models with state uncertainty are included and these all use cjs_delta to assign a known state.
cjs_delta(pars, m, F, T, start)
2-d array of initial state probability vectors for each id
list of real parameter matrices (id by occasion) for each type of parameter
number of states
initial occasion vector
number of occasions
matrix with values that are first occasion and for some CJS type models the state of first observation
