Classify Multivariate Observations by Linear Discrimination
Classify multivariate observations in conjunction with lda, and also
project data onto the linear discriminants.

This function is a method for the generic function predict() for
class "lda". It can be invoked by calling predict(x) for
an object x of the appropriate class, or directly by calling
predict.lda(x) regardless of the class of the object.
Missing values in newdata are handled by returning NA if the
linear discriminants cannot be evaluated. If newdata is omitted and
the na.action of the fit omitted cases, these will be omitted on the
prediction.
This version centres the linear discriminants so that the
weighted mean (weighted by prior) of the group centroids is at
the origin.
