distfromq: Reconstruct a Distribution from a Collection of Quantiles

Given a set of predictive quantiles from a distribution, estimate the distribution and create 'd', 'p', 'q', and 'r' functions to evaluate its density function, distribution function, and quantile function, and generate random samples. On the interior of the provided quantiles, an interpolation method such as a monotonic cubic spline is used; the tails are approximated by a location-scale family.
