Path model from covariance matrix with ordering

Helper function. Takes a covariance matrix and ordering and generates a lower-triangular weights matrix.

cov_to_path(sigma, ordering = NULL, digits = 2)

`sigma`	input matrix, with rows and columns in desired topological ordering Must be an invertible square matrix
`ordering`	character vector containing the dimension names of the input matrix in the desired ordering
`digits`	the number of digits used to round the output

lower triangular matrix containing regression weights of the path model. Element ij represents the effect of X_j on X_i
