Compute the inverse of the additive relationship matrix using Quass algorithm

Description

Given the vectors of sire and dam, directly return inverse of additive relationship matrix 'A' without creating the 'A' itself. This is a modification of Henderson's method and unlike createAinv.r, this can be used in inbred populations. Reference:
