Internal: Compute CI using Distribution of Product (Meeker & Escobar 1994)

Description

Computes confidence intervals for the product of two normal random variables using the exact distribution method. The point estimate is \mu_x\mu_y + \sigma_{xy} and the standard error follows Craig (1936):

SE = \sqrt{\sigma_y^2\mu_x^2 + \sigma_x^2\mu_y^2 + 2\mu_x\mu_y\rho\sigma_x\sigma_y + \sigma_x^2\sigma_y^2 + \sigma_x^2\sigma_y^2\rho^2}
