SpecialExponentialFamilies

Implementation of special exponential families (currently in 1 dimension) and fitting through Lindsey's method.

Also implements estimation of exponential families in the empirical Bayes problem using regularized maximum likelihood.

The latter method is also available in the deconvolveR R package.
