Estimate seeding time from delays and generation time

The seeding time is set to the mean of the specified delays, constrained to be at least the maximum generation time

Usage

get_seeding_time(delays, generation_time, rt = rt_opts())

delays: A call to delay_opts() defining delay distributions and options. See the documentation of delay_opts() and the examples below for details.
generation_time: A call to generation_time_opts() defining the generation time distribution used. For backwards compatibility a list of summary parameters can also be passed.
rt: A list of options as generated by rt_opts() defining Rt estimation. Defaults to rt_opts(). Set to NULL to switch to using back calculation rather than generating infections using Rt.
