#' Calculate BLUPs of QTL effects in scan along one chromosome
#'
#' Calculate BLUPs of QTL effects in scan along one chromosome, with a
#' single-QTL model treating the QTL effects as random, with possible
#' allowance for covariates and for a residual polygenic effect.
#'
#' @param genoprobs Genotype probabilities as calculated by
#' [calc_genoprob()].
#' @param pheno A numeric vector of phenotype values (just one phenotype, not a matrix of them)
#' @param kinship Optional kinship matrix, or a list of kinship matrices (one
#' per chromosome), in order to use the LOCO (leave one chromosome
#' out) method.
#' @param addcovar An optional numeric matrix of additive covariates.
#' @param nullcovar An optional numeric matrix of additional additive
#' covariates that are used under the null hypothesis (of no QTL) but
#' not under the alternative (with a QTL). This is needed for the X
#' chromosome, where we might need sex as a additive covariate under
#' the null hypothesis, but we wouldn't want to include it under the
#' alternative as it would be collinear with the QTL effects. Only
#' used if `kinship` is provided but `hsq` is not, to get
#' estimate of residual heritability.
#' @param contrasts An optional numeric matrix of genotype contrasts, size
#' genotypes x genotypes. For an intercross, you might use
#' `cbind(mu=c(1,0,0), a=c(-1, 0, 1), d=c(0, 1, 0))` to get
#' mean, additive effect, and dominance effect. The default is the
#' identity matrix.
#' @param se If TRUE, also calculate the standard errors.
#' @param reml If `reml=TRUE`, use
#' REML to estimate variance components; otherwise maximum likelihood.
#' @param tol Tolerance value for convergence of linear mixed model fit.
#' @param cores Number of CPU cores to use, for parallel calculations.
#' (If `0`, use [parallel::detectCores()].)
#' Alternatively, this can be links to a set of cluster sockets, as
#' produced by [parallel::makeCluster()].
#' @param quiet If FALSE, print message about number of cores used when multi-core.
#'
#' @return An object of class `"scan1coef"`: a matrix of estimated regression coefficients, of dimension
#' positions x number of effects. The number of effects is
#' `n_genotypes + n_addcovar`.
#' May also contain the following attributes:
#' * `SE` - Present if `se=TRUE`: a matrix of estimated
#' standard errors, of same dimension as `coef`.
#' * `sample_size` - Vector of sample sizes used for each
#' phenotype
#'
#' @details For each of the inputs, the row names are used as
#' individual identifiers, to align individuals.
#'
#' If `kinship` is provided, the linear mixed model accounts for
#' a residual polygenic effect, with a the polygenic variance
#' estimated under the null hypothesis of no (major) QTL, and then
#' taken as fixed as known in the scan to estimate QTL effects.
#'
#' If `contrasts` is provided, the genotype probability matrix,
#' \eqn{P}, is post-multiplied by the contrasts matrix, \eqn{A}, prior
#' to fitting the model. So we use \eqn{P \cdot A}{P A} as the \eqn{X}
#' matrix in the model. One might view the rows of
#' \ifelse{html}{\out{<em>A</em><sup>-1</sup>}}{\eqn{A^{-1}}}
#' as the set of contrasts, as the estimated effects are the estimated
#' genotype effects pre-multiplied by
#' \ifelse{html}{\out{<em>A</em><sup>-1</sup>}}{\eqn{A^{-1}}}.
