Pool test results from several studies or sub-studies
Given the same set of "score" tests carried out in several studies or
in several different sub-samples within a study, this function pools
the evidence by summation of the score statistics and score
variances. It combines tests produced by
single.snp.tests
or by snp.lhs.tests
and
snp.rhs.tests
.

This function works by recursive calls to the generic function
pool2
which pools the results of two studies.
An object of same class as the input objects (optionally without the
.score
) extension. Tests are produced for the union of
SNPs tested in all the input objects.
