Description: Aggregates matrix population models (MPMs) in both the lambda (stable 
    growth rate) and R0 (net reproductive rate) frameworks, including standard and 
    elasticity-consistent aggregators. Standard aggregation in the lambda framework 
    maintains consistent lambda and stable stage distribution, while standard aggregation 
    in the R0 framework maintains consistent R0 and cohort stable stage distribution. 
    Elasticity-consistent aggregators maintain these same consistencies with respect
    to the chosen framework and additionally preserve consistent reproductive values in 
    the lambda framework and cohort reproductive values in the R0 framework. Aggregation 
    can take the form of general-to-general MPM (mpm_aggregate) or Leslie-to-Leslie
    MPM (leslie_aggregate).
