calcOmega: Solve for Omega (additional genotype-specific mortality)
In MGDrivE: Mosquito Gene Drive Explorer

Solves for root of equation of geometrically-distributed lifespan for value of omega.

1	calcOmega(mu, lifespanReduction)

`mu`	Daily mortality probability (discrete-time hazard, called `muAd` in code)
`lifespanReduction`	Target reduced lifespan, between 0 and 1 (target average lifespan will be \frac{1}{μ_{Ad}} \times lifespanReduction)

# reduce lifespan by 10%
#  Example mu is an average for Aedes
newOmega <- calcOmega(mu = 0.11, lifespanReduction = 0.90)
