##' Calculate false discovery rate of identifying transmission pairs in a sample
##'
##' This function calculates the false discovery rate (proportion of linked pairs that are false positives) in a sample given the sensitivity
##' and specificity of the linkage criteria, and sample size \eqn{M}. Assumptions about transmission and linkage (single or multiple)
##' can be specified.
##'
##' @param sensitivity scalar or vector giving the sensitivity of the linkage criteria
##' @param specificity scalar or vector giving the specificity of the linkage criteria
##' @param rho scalar or vector giving the proportion of the final outbreak size that is sampled
##' @param M scalar or vector giving the number of cases sampled
##' @param R scalar or vector giving the effective reproductive number of the pathogen (default=NULL)
##' @param assumption a character vector indicating which assumptions about transmission and linkage criteria. Default = `'mtml'`. Accepted arguments are:
##' \enumerate{
##'      \item `'stsl'` for the single-transmission single-linkage assumption.
##'      \item `'mtsl'` for the multiple-transmission single-linkage assumption.
##'      \item `'mtml'` for the multiple-transmission multiple-linkage assumption.
##'      }
##'
##' @return scalar or vector giving the true discovery rate
