		Staggered Synthetic Control Estimation and Inference //
		Implements the Staggered Synthetic Control (SSC) method for
		estimating treatment effects in panel data with staggered
		adoption, as proposed by Cao, Lu, and Wu (2020)
		doi:10.48550/arXiv.1912.06320. Constructs synthetic control
		weights via constrained quadratic programming, estimates
		heterogeneous treatment effects and event-time average
		treatment effects on the treated (ATT), and provides placebo-
		in-time confidence intervals and p-values.
