spicy: Descriptive Statistics, Summary Tables, and Data Management Tools

Provides tabulation, descriptive-summary, and variable-inspection tools for applied data analysis. Frequency tables and cross-tabulations with contingency-table association measures (Cramer's V, Phi, Goodman-Kruskal Gamma, Kendall's Tau-b, Somers' D, and others); categorical and continuous summary tables; regression coefficient tables for one or more 'lm' or 'glm' fits side by side; and outcome-by-group comparison tables from linear models with optional additive covariate adjustment. All table outputs follow APA conventions and expose 'broom'-compatible 'tidy()' / 'glance()' methods for downstream pipelines. Helpers cover interactive codebooks, variable-label extraction, clipboard export, and row-wise descriptive summaries.
