GWPR.light: Geographically Weighted Panel Regression

A modern, first implementation of Geographically Weighted Panel Regression (GWPR) for spatial panel data. The package provides a unified public API supporting Gaussian and binomial family models, within/pooling/random panel effects, three bandwidth search strategies (grid, Stochastic Gradient Descent, random), five kernel functions, and optional parallel execution via the 'future' framework. Diagnostic tools include spatial Moran's I, local F-test, Hausman test, and Lagrange Multiplier test.
