Description: Perform inference in the secondary analysis setting with
        linked data potentially containing mismatch errors. Only the
        linked data file may be accessible and information about the
        record linkage process may be limited or unavailable.
        Implements the 'General Framework for Regression with
        Mismatched Data' developed by Slawski et al. (2025)
        <doi:10.1093/jrsssa/qnae083>. The framework uses a mixture
        model for pairs of linked records whose two components reflect
        distributions conditional on match status, i.e., correct match
        or mismatch. Inference is based on composite likelihood and the
        Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm. The package currently
        supports Cox Proportional Hazards Regression (right-censored
        data only) and Generalized Linear Regression Models (Gaussian,
        Gamma, Poisson, and Logistic (binary models only)). Information
        about the underlying record linkage process can be incorporated
        into the method if available (e.g., assumed overall mismatch
        rate, safe matches, predictors of match status, or predicted
        probabilities of correct matches).
