Description: Provides functions for the joint analysis of Q sets of
    p-values obtained for the same list of items. This joint analysis is
    performed by querying a composite hypothesis, i.e. an arbitrary
    complex combination of simple hypotheses, as described in Mary-Huard
    et al. (2021) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btab592> and De Walsche et
    al.(2025) <doi: 10.1093/nargab/lqaf118>. In this approach, the Q-uplet
    of p-values associated with each item is distributed as a multivariate
    mixture, where each of the 2^Q components corresponds to a specific
    combination of simple hypotheses. The dependence between the p-value
    series is considered using a Gaussian copula function. A p-value for
    the composite hypothesis test is derived from the posterior
    probabilities.
