		Location-Varying Gating for Mixtures of Quantile Regressions //
		Extends finite mixtures of quantile regressions (the 'mixqr'
		package) with a concomitant-covariate, quantile-indexed mixing
		gate. The mixing probabilities follow a multinomial-logit model
		whose coefficients may depend on a separate set of gating
		covariates and on the quantile level, so that latent-class
		membership can change across the conditional distribution. This
		turns the location-varying mixing idea of Furno (2025) into a
		likelihood and EM object with proper standard errors on the
		gate. Estimation reuses the 'mixqr' component and error-density
		machinery; the gate is fit by a weighted multinomial-logistic
		M-step and reduces exactly to a constant gate when the gating
		model is an intercept only.
