Constructor for simumix objects.
The function simumix creates a simumix object from a tabfreq object.

The function as.simumix is an alias for simumix function.

is.simumix tests if an object is a valid simumix object.

simumix(tab,which.loc=NULL,ncontri=1)
as.simumix(tab,which.loc=NULL,ncontri=1)
is.simumix(x)

`tab`	a simugeno object created with constructor simugeno
`which.loc`	a character vector giving the chosen loci for the genotypes simulation. The default is set to NULL, which corresponds to all the loci of the `simugeno` object given in argument
`ncontri`	integer vector giving the number of individuals. If there are several populations, `ncontri` gives the numbers of individuals to simulate per population. Default is one.
`x`	an object

DNA mixtures are created by randomly drawing individual genotypes with a uniform probability. If there are N individuals in the sample (the simugeno object), then each individual has a probability of 1/N to be selected.

For simumix and as.simumix, a simumix object. For is.simumix, a logical.
