Defines functions sequence_capabilities

Documented in sequence_capabilities

#' Report gp3sequences capabilities and optional integrations
#'
#' Returns a deterministic, machine-readable inventory of native analytical
#' capabilities, optional adapters, reference implementations, and specialist
#' handoffs relevant to the current gp3sequences development series.
#'
#' @param include_optional Logical; include optional/reference capabilities.
#' @param check_versions Logical; report installed optional-package versions.
#'
#' @return A data frame with capability family, capability, implementation role,
#' backend, availability, and version information. The function never installs,
#' attaches, or loads optional packages.
#'
#' @examples
#' capabilities <- sequence_capabilities()
#' capabilities[c("family", "capability", "role", "available")]
