Description: Performs joint selection in Generalized Linear Mixed
        Models (GLMMs) using penalized likelihood methods.
        Specifically, the Penalized Quasi-Likelihood (PQL) is used as a
        loss function, and penalties are then augmented to perform
        simultaneous fixed and random effects selection. Regularized
        PQL avoids the need for integration (or approximations such as
        the Laplace's method) during the estimation process, and so the
        full solution path for model selection can be constructed
        relatively quickly.
