abstract: Provides a robust workflow for optimal cut-point analysis in time-to-event
  ('survival') data. Functions determine the optimal number of cut-points via find_cutpoint_number(),
  find their precise locations via find_cutpoint() using systematic or genetic algorithms
  (via the 'rgenoud' package), and validate stability via bootstrapping using validate_cutpoint().
  Features include covariate adjustment, parallel processing, and an extensible S3
  plotting engine for clinical dashboards and diagnostics.
