Description: Provides profile-likelihood variance-components estimation
        of narrow-sense heritability (h2) for quantitative traits in
        family cohort studies. Additive genetic relationship matrices
        are built from pedigrees via 'kinship2'. Phenotypes are
        inverse-normal transformed internally. Likelihood-ratio tests
        use a one-sided chi-squared boundary correction equivalent to
        SOLAR Eclipse. Ninety-five percent confidence intervals are
        derived from the profile likelihood rather than Wald
        approximations. Batch estimation over many traits returns tidy
        data frames ready for downstream visualisation (forest plots,
        heatmaps).
