#' Compute the population distribution of pairs and singles from a Revealed Preference Matchings Model
#' 
#' \code{\link{rpmpopulationpmf}} computes the probability mass function for a population of the pairs and singles
#' from a Revealed Preference Matchings Model based on arbitary availability distribution and 
#' preferences. It is typically based on the estimate from a \code{rpm()} call.
#' 
#' The function \code{\link{rpm}} is used to fit a revealed preference model
#' for men and women of certain
#' characteristics (or shared characteristics) of people of the opposite sex.
#' The model assumes a one-to-one stable matching using an observed set of
#' matchings and a set of (possibly dyadic) covariates to 
#' estimate the parameters for
#' linear equations of utilities.
#' It does this using an large-population likelihood based on ideas from Dagsvik (2000), Menzel (2015) and Goyal et al (2023).
#' 
#' The model represents the dyadic utility functions as deterministic linear utility functions of
#' dyadic variables. These utility functions are functions of observed characteristics of the women
#' and men.
#' These functions are entered as terms in the function call
#' to \code{\link{rpm}}. This function simulates from such a model.
#'
#' @param object list; an object of class\code{rpm} that is typically the result of a call to \code{rpm()}.
#' @param N integer; The total population size. This must be set. The number of women and men are derived from the
#' (weighted) data.
#' @param num_women integer; (Optional) The number of women in the population.
#' @param num_men integer; (Optional) The number of men in the population.
#' @param pmfW vector; (Optional) The population proportions of the numbers of women of each type. 
#' This should be compatible with the type in the object.
#' @param pmfM vector; (Optional) The population proportions of the numbers of men of each type. 
#' This should be compatible with the type in the object.
#' @param verbose  logical; Should verbose messages be printed out.
#' @return A list of data.frame, each a simulation from the population.
