Description: Provides S7-based infrastructure for fitting mediation
        models, extracting path coefficients, and performing bootstrap
        inference. Designed as a foundation package for the mediation
        analysis ecosystem, supporting 'probmed', 'RMediation', and
        'medrobust' packages. Implements unified interfaces for model
        fitting across different engines (generalized linear models,
        linear mixed models for cluster-randomized designs, and a
        maximum-likelihood structural equation engine; Bayesian methods
        are planned), standardized extraction of mediation paths from
        various model types, and robust bootstrap inference methods.
        Mediation methods are described in MacKinnon, Lockwood and
        Williams (2004) <doi:10.1207/s15327906mbr3901_4>, Preacher and
        Hayes (2008) <doi:10.3758/brm.40.3.879>, Tofighi and MacKinnon
        (2011) <doi:10.3758/s13428-011-0076-x>, and VanderWeele (2014)
