Description: Fits a wide variety of multivariate spatio-temporal models
    with simultaneous and lagged interactions among variables (including
    vector autoregressive spatio-temporal ('VAST') dynamics)
    for areal, continuous, or network spatial domains.  
    It includes time-variable, space-variable, and space-time-variable 
    interactions using dynamic structural equation models ('DSEM') 
    as expressive interface, and the 'mgcv' package to specify splines 
    via the formula interface.  See Thorson et al. (2025)
    <doi:10.1111/geb.70035> for more details.
