\brief Functionality for handling multi-state models.

These are used in IMP to model systems that are found simultaneously in multiple states. For example, a hinge protein may be found in both 'open' and 'closed' forms, and so some experiments conducted on a sample of the protein will return data from both forms. Building a single model that tries to be consistent with all the data will therefore fail - two models need to be constructed.

Command line tool to enumerate multi-state models with SAXS profiles. See also IMP::foxs for the similar FoXS command line tool.
