implementing modelselect functionality in modMAtree.R in response to it's removal from FIESTAutils/.../MAest.pbar.R #20

The idea is to try to preserve additivity in MA estimates by doing model selection once at the very beginning instead of during each model fitting to a given rowvar and/or colvar level in the data.

I think that I added this code into the right section of modMAtree.R, but would appreciate a second opinion on that.

We currently cannot test that adequately from the GitHub CI. Tracey will need to take a look.

yep, I'll definitely spend some time walking through this with tracey to make sure it works how we want it to work!

closing this for now while I troubleshoot modelselect behavior more thoroughly
