/* Define a VAR_EXPECTATION_MODEL
** ------------------------------
**
** model_name: the name of the VAR_EXPECTATION_MODEL (mandatory).
** var_model_name: the name of the VAR model used for the expectations (mandatory).
** variable: the name of the variable to be forecasted (mandatory).
** horizon: the horizon forecast (mandatory).
** discount: the discount factor, which can be a value or a declared parameter (default is 1.0, no discounting).
** time_shift: shifts the information set to the past, must be a non positive scalar. By default, expectations
** about `variable` in period `t+horizon` are formed in period t (time_shift=0)
**
**
** The `horizon` parameter can be an integer in which case the (discounted) `horizon` step ahead forecast
** is computed using the VAR model `var_model_name`. Alternatively, `horizon` can be a range. In this case
** VAR_EXPECTATION_MODEL returns a discounted sum of expected values. If `horizon` is set equal to the range
** 0:Inf, then VAR_EXPECTATION_MODEL computes:
**
** ∑ βʰ Eₜ[yₜ₊ₕ]
**
** where the sum is over h=0,…,∞ and the conditional expectations are computed with VAR model `var_model_name`.
