Fancy 0.99.4

• fancy() now returns a formal S4 FancyResult object (with slots, validity, and show/plot/$ methods) in place of the previous S3 list. Slots remain accessible with $ (e.g. result$edges) or @.
• Reformatted all R sources to 4-space indentation (styler::style_pkg(indent_by = 4)).
• Lowered the default number of parallel workers to cpus = 1L in fancy(), bootstrap_networks(), and find_optimal_k(); users can raise it for real datasets.
• Replaced (i + 1L):n index ranges with seq_len()-based forms for zero-length safety.
• Split the bundled example data into one .rda file per dataset so each is loadable with data(<name>).
