#' Calibrate a MaxNet (MaxEnt) model using AICc
#'
#' This function calculates the "best" MaxEnt model using AICc across all possible combinations of a set of master regularization parameters and feature classes. The "best" model has the lowest AICc, with ties broken by number of features (fewer is better), regularization multiplier (higher better), then finally the number of coefficients (fewer better). The function can return the best model (default), a list of models created using all possible combinations of feature classes and regularization multipliers, and/or a data frame with tuning statistics for each model. Models in the list and in the data frame are sorted from best to worst.
#'
#' @param data Data frame or matrix. Contains a column indicating whether each row is a presence (1) or background (0) site, plus columns for environmental predictors.
#' @param resp Character or integer. Name or column index of response variable. Default is to use the first column in \code{data}.
#' @param preds Character list or integer list. Names of columns or column indices of predictors. Default is to use the second and subsequent columns in \code{data}.
#' @param regMult Numeric vector. Values of the master regularization parameters (called \code{beta} in some publications) to test.
#' @param classes Character list. Names of feature classes to use (either \code{default} to use \code{lpqh}) or any combination of \code{lpqht}, where \code{l} ==> linear features, \code{p} ==> product features, \code{q} ==> quadratic features, \code{h} ==> hinge features, and \code{t} ==> threshold features.
#' @param testClasses Logical. If \code{TRUE} (default) then test all possible combinations of classes (note that all tested models will at least have linear features). If \code{FALSE} then use the classes provided (these will not vary between models).
#' @param dropOverparam Logical, if \code{TRUE} (default), drop models if they have more coefficients than training occurrences. It is possible for no models to fulfill this criterion, in which case no models will be returned.
#' @param anyway Logical. Same as \code{dropOverparam} (included for backwards compatibility. If \code{NULL} (default), then the value of \code{dropOverparam} will take precedence. If \code{TRUE} or \code{FALSE} then \code{anyway} will override the value of \code{dropOverparam}.
#' @param out Character or character vector. Indicates type of value returned. Values can be \code{'model'} (default; return model with lowest AICc), \code{'models'} (return a list of all models), and/or \code{'tuning'} (return a data frame with AICc for each model). If more than one value is specified, then the output will be a list with elements named "model", "models", and/or "tuning". If \code{'models'} is specified, they will only be produced if \code{select = TRUE}. The models will appear in the list in same order as they appear in the tuning table (i.e., model with the lowest AICc first, second-lowest next, etc.). If just one value is specified, the output will be either an object of class \code{MaxEnt}, a list with objects of class \code{MaxEnt}, or a data frame.
#' @param forceLinear Logical. If \code{TRUE} (default) then require any tested models to include at least linear features.
#' @param cores Integer >= 1. Number of cores to use. Default is 1.
#' @param verbose Logical. If \code{TRUE} report the AICc table.
#' @param ... Extra arguments. Not used.
#' @return If \code{out = 'model'} this function returns an object of class \code{MaxEnt}. If \code{out = 'tuning'} this function returns a data frame with tuning parameters, log likelihood, and AICc for each model tried. If \code{out = c('model', 'tuning'} then it returns a list object with the \code{MaxEnt} object and the data frame.
#' @details This function is a wrapper for \code{\link[maxnet]{maxnet}}.
