#' Stepwise model builder for GAM
#'
#' Builds a GAM model in a step-wise fashion. For each "term" there is an
#' ordered list of alternatives, and the function traverses these in a greedy
#' fashion. Note: this is NOT a method for \code{step}, which used to be a
#' generic, so must be invoked with the full name.
#'
#' @param object An object of class \code{Gam} or any of it's inheritants.
#' @param scope defines the range of models examined in the step-wise search.
#' It is a list of formulas, with each formula corresponding to a term in the
#' model. Each of these formulas specifies a "regimen" of candidate forms in
#' which the particular term may enter the model. For example, a term formula
#' might be \code{~1+ Income + log(Income) + s(Income)}. This means that
#' \code{Income} could either appear not at all, linearly, linearly in its
#' logarithm, or as a smooth function estimated nonparametrically. A \code{1}
#' in the formula allows the additional option of leaving the term out of the
#' model entirely. Every term in the model is described by such a term
#' formula, and the final model is built up by selecting a component from each
#' formula.
#'
#' As an alternative more convenient for big models, each list can have instead
#' of a formula a character vector corresponding to the candidates for that
#' term. Thus we could have \code{c("1","x","s(x,df=5")} rather than
#' \code{~1+x+s(x,df=5)}.
#'
#' The supplied model \code{object} is used as the starting model, and hence
#' there is the requirement that one term from each of the term formulas be
#' present in \code{formula(object)}. This also implies that any terms in
#' \code{formula(object)} \emph{not} contained in any of the term formulas will
#' be forced to be present in every model considered. The function
#' \code{gam.scope} is helpful for generating the scope argument for a large
#' model.
#' @param scale an optional argument used in the definition of the AIC
#' statistic used to evaluate models for selection. By default, the scaled
#' Chi-squared statistic for the initial model is used, but if forward
#' selection is to be performed, this is not necessarily a sound choice.
#' @param direction The mode of step-wise search, can be one of \code{"both"},
#' \code{"backward"}, or \code{"forward"}, with a default of \code{"both"}. If
#' \code{scope} is missing, the default for \code{direction} is "both".
#' @param trace If \code{TRUE} (the default), information is printed during the
#' running of \code{step.Gam()}. This is an encouraging choice in general,
#' since \code{step.Gam()} can take some time to compute either for large
#' models or when called with an an extensive \code{scope=} argument. A simple
#' one line model summary is printed for each model selected. This argument can
#' also be given as the binary \code{0} or \code{1}. A value \code{trace=2}
#' gives a more verbose trace.
#' @param keep A filter function whose input is a fitted \code{Gam} object, and
#' anything else passed via \dots{}, and whose output is arbitrary. Typically
#' \code{keep()} will select a subset of the components of the object and
#' return them. The default is not to keep anything.
#' @param steps The maximum number of steps to be considered. The default is
#' 1000 (essentially as many as required). It is typically used to stop the
#' process early.
#' @param parallel If \code{TRUE}, use parallel \code{foreach} to fit each
#' trial run. Must register parallel before hand, such as \code{doMC} or
#' others. See the example below.
#' @param \dots Additional arguments to be passed on to \code{keep}
#' @return The step-wise-selected model is returned, with up to two additional
#' components. There is an \code{"anova"} component corresponding to the steps
#' taken in the search, as well as a \code{"keep"} component if the
#' \code{keep=} argument was supplied in the call.
#'
#' We describe the most general setup, when \code{direction = "both"}. At any
#' stage there is a current model comprising a single term from each of the
#' term formulas supplied in the \code{scope=} argument. A series of models is
#' fitted, each corrresponding to a formula obtained by moving each of the
#' terms one step up or down in its regimen, relative to the formula of the
#' current model. If the current value for any term is at either of the extreme
#' ends of its regimen, only one rather than two steps can be considered. So if
#' there are \code{p} term formulas, at most \code{2*p - 1} models are
#' considered. A record is kept of all the models ever visited (hence the
#' \code{-1} above), to avoid repetition. Once each of these models has been
#' fit, the "best" model in terms of the AIC statistic is selected and defines
#' the step. The entire process is repeated until either the maximum number of
#' steps has been used, or until the AIC criterion can not be decreased by any
#' of the eligible steps.
