CircularRegression: Circular Regression Models

Implements regression models for circular response data, including homogeneous angular regression, consensus angular regression, a two-step workflow, selected special-case model wrappers, and a random-intercept extension for clustered circular outcomes. The main methodology follows Rivest et al. (2016) "A General Angular Regression Model for the Analysis of Data on Animal Movement in Ecology" <doi:10.1111/rssc.12124>.
