fit_ab {CB2}

A C++ function to perform a parameter estimation for the sgRNA-level test. It will estimate two different parameters 'phat' and 'vhat,' and we assume input count data follows the beta-binomial distribution. Dr. Keith Baggerly initially implemented this code in Matlab, and it has been rewritten it in C++ for the speed-up.
