Description: Fits a state-space mass-balance model for marine
        ecosystems, which implements dynamics derived from 'Ecopath
        with Ecosim' ('EwE') <https://ecopath.org/> while fitting to
        time-series of fishery catch, biomass indices, age-composition
        samples, and weight-at-age data. 'Ecostate' fits biological
        parameters (e.g., equilibrium mass) and measurement parameters
        (e.g., catchability coefficients) jointly with residual
        variation in process errors, and can include Bayesian priors
        for parameters.
