#' Box-Cox and Loess-based decomposition bootstrap.
#'
#' Generates bootstrapped versions of a time series using the Box-Cox and
#' Loess-based decomposition bootstrap.
#'
#' The procedure is described in Bergmeir et al. Box-Cox decomposition is
#' applied, together with STL or Loess (for non-seasonal time series), and the
#' remainder is bootstrapped using a moving block bootstrap.
#'
#' @param x Original time series.
#' @param num Number of bootstrapped versions to generate.
#' @param block_size Block size for the moving block bootstrap.
#' @return A list with bootstrapped versions of the series. The first series in
#' the list is the original series.
