distribSplitSamples: Split each sample into a specified number of subsamples...
In immunogenomics/scpost: Simulates single-cell datasets from input data

Given the number of cases, the number of controls, and number of batches, this function will first split each sample (regardless of case-control status) into a specified number of equally sized subsamples (numSubsamples). These subsamples will then be distributed into different batches. Each batch will contain cells from multiple samples (equal to numSubsamples)

1	distribSplitSamples(ncases, nctrls, nbatches, numSubsamples)

`ncases`	The number of cases.
`nctrls`	The number of controls.
`nbatches`	The number of batches that samples will be distributed into.
`numSubsamples`	The number of subsamples that each sample will be divided into

Returns a list containing the following elements: a list containing the batch structure of the study (info on which samples are cases/controls and which batch they were placed in), a vector containing the names of all samples, a vector containing the names of case samples, and a vector containing the names of control samples. This output is used directly as input into our simulation functions (batchStructure parameter).
