Description: A maximum-likelihood implementation of the thermal-load-sensitivity
    framework for thermal death-time modelling introduced by Noble, Arnold and
    Pottier in the 'bayesTLS' package, providing the frequentist counterpart to
    that Bayesian workflow. The modelling idea and the four-parameter logistic
    parameterisation are theirs; 'freqTLS' contributes a 'Template Model Builder'
    ('TMB') likelihood whose midpoint is written directly in terms of critical
    thermal maximum ('CTmax') and
    thermal sensitivity (z) so both headline quantities are estimable, and reports
    uncertainty through a unified trio of frequentist intervals -- Wald (delta),
    profile-likelihood, and bootstrap -- for binomial and beta-binomial survival
    counts and beta-distributed proportions. Column and formula interfaces support
    fixed and grouped designs plus limited independent random intercepts; prediction
    includes survival curves and deterministic heat-injury scenarios. Equivalence
    claims are restricted to the matched relative-threshold, constant-shape
    'bayesTLS' configuration.
