Added regression tests protecting adult-blood IDOL estimates.
Hardened ExperimentHub reference retrieval and validation.
Added direct custom RGChannelSet and RGChannelSetExtended support while retaining character-name compatibility.
Avoided attaching reference-data packages during estimation.
Moved minfi and ExperimentHub from Depends to Imports.
Removed obsolete memory.limit usage and the unreachable nlme pathway.
Declared MatrixGenerics::rowRanges explicitly.
Removed unused probe statistics from the IDOL workflow.
Improved vignette chunk labeling and execution.

FlowSorted.CordBlood.450k was removed from Suggests because it was deprecated by Bioconductor.
compositeCellType = "CordBlood" now gives an informative error directing users to FlowSorted.CordBloodCombined.450k.
The maintainer ORCID and package metadata were updated.
Added the missing colData<- namespace import.

Made the following significant changes o Added the projectCellType_CP function for projecting the cell counts on beta values

Made the following significant changes o Corrected combineArrays problems o Updated cord blood reference is integrated (Gervin/Salas, 2019) o You can now use lessThanOne option in estimateCellCounts2
