glscalibrator: Automated Calibration and Analysis of 'GLS' (Global Location Sensor) Data

Provides a fully automated workflow for calibrating and analyzing light-level geolocation ('GLS') data from seabirds and other wildlife. The 'glscalibrator' package auto-discovers birds from directory structures, automatically detects calibration periods from the first days of deployment, processes multiple individuals in batch mode, and generates standardized outputs including position estimates, diagnostic plots, and quality control metrics. Implements the established threshold workflow internally, following the methods described in 'SGAT' (Wotherspoon et al. (2016) <https://github.com/SWotherspoon/SGAT>), 'GeoLight' (Lisovski et al. (2012) <doi:10.1111/j.2041-210X.2012.00185.x>), and 'TwGeos' (Lisovski et al. (2019) <https://github.com/slisovski/TwGeos>).
