In maftools: Summarize, Analyze and Visualize MAF Files

#' Performs survival analysis for a geneset
#' @description Similar to \code{\link{mafSurvival}} but for a geneset
#' @param maf an \code{\link{MAF}} object generated by \code{\link{read.maf}}
#' @param geneSet gene names for which survival analysis needs to be performed. Samples with mutations in ALL of the genes provided are used as genes-set mutants.
#' @param clinicalData dataframe containing events and time to events. Default looks for clinical data in annotation slot of \code{\link{MAF}}.
#' @param time column name contining time in \code{clinicalData}
#' @param Status column name containing status of patients in \code{clinicalData}. must be logical or numeric. e.g, TRUE or FALSE, 1 or 0.
