Description: Computes score-based confidence intervals and hypothesis tests
    for variance and covariance parameters of random effects in linear mixed
    models fitted with 'lme4'. The intervals invert a profile score
    statistic on the variance-covariance scale, with nuisance parameters
    estimated on an extended parameter set. The intervals have near-nominal
    coverage uniformly in the parameter, including near the boundary of the
    parameter space, where Wald and likelihood ratio intervals can be
    unreliable. The methods are described in Shedden
    and Ekvall (2026) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2610.04181>, building on Ekvall and
    Bottai (2026) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asaf079>, Zhang, Ekvall, and Molstad
    (2025) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asaf010>, and Ekvall and Bottai (2022)
    <doi:10.1214/22-AOS2177>.
