Description: Calculates risk differences (or prevalence differences for
        cross-sectional data) and Number Needed to Treat (NNT) using
        generalized linear models with automatic link function
        selection. Provides robust model fitting with fallback methods,
        support for stratification and adjustment variables, inverse
        probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) for causal inference
        with NNT calculations, and publication-ready output formatting.
        Handles model convergence issues gracefully and provides
        confidence intervals using multiple approaches. Methods are
        based on approaches described in Mark W. Donoghoe and Ian C.
