HeatStressR: Calculate Heat Stress Indices

Calculates heat-stress indices from meteorological observations using shared psychrometric calculations and consistent method-specific input handling. Methods include the physically based outdoor wet-bulb globe temperature model described by Liljegren et al. (2008) <doi:10.1080/15459620802310770>, wet-bulb temperature and heat-index calculations, and established closed-form heat-stress indices. Provides row-level diagnostics, configurable physical controls, vectorized batch processing, and optional parallel execution for the Liljegren method. It is an independently maintained fork of 'HeatStress'; its Liljegren implementation is not a bitwise-compatible port of the original program.
