ps_tail_length

Calculate the tail length from number of draws and relative efficiency
r_eff. See Appendix H in Vehtari et al. (2024). This function is
used internally and is exported to be available for other packages.

Provides useful tools for both users and developers of packages
for fitting Bayesian models or working with output from Bayesian models.
The primary goals of the package are to:
(a) Efficiently convert between many different useful formats of
draws (samples) from posterior or prior distributions.
(b) Provide consistent methods for operations commonly performed on draws,
for example, subsetting, binding, or mutating draws.
(c) Provide various summaries of draws in convenient formats.
(d) Provide lightweight implementations of state of the art posterior
inference diagnostics. References: Vehtari et al. (2021)
