Description: Fits a wide variety of multivariate spatio-temporal models
        with simultaneous and lagged interactions among variables
        (including vector autoregressive spatio-temporal ('VAST')
        dynamics) for areal, continuous, or network spatial domains. It
        includes time-variable, space-variable, and space-time-variable
        interactions using dynamic structural equation models ('DSEM')
        as expressive interface, and the 'mgcv' package to specify
        splines via the formula interface.  See Thorson et al. (2025)
        <doi:10.1111/geb.70035> for more details.
