Description: Tools for detecting and modeling underdispersion in count data
    (conditional variance below the conditional mean), a phenomenon overlooked by
    the Poisson and negative binomial defaults. Provides a screening diagnostic that
    benchmarks at-risk dispersion against a zero-truncated Poisson; the continuous
    parameter binomial (CPB) regression and its zero-truncated variant, with an
    interpretable observation-specific bound and high-dimensional fixed-effects support;
    validated bootstrap (for coefficients) and profile-likelihood (for the dispersion
    parameter) inference; and quantities of interest including predicted probabilities
    and the implied ceiling. The likelihood is implemented in C++ for speed.
