Description: A unified, flexible framework for high dimensional feature
    selection in the presence of a survival outcome. Provides multiple
    machine learning approaches (Cox elastic net, random survival forest,
    accelerated oblique random survival forest, gradient-boosted Cox,
    stability selection, classical univariate Cox screening, pseudo-
    observation bridging to arbitrary regression learners, and Fine-Gray
    competing risks selection) under a single interface. Adds causal
    survival forest estimation of heterogeneous treatment effects on
    survival (experimental), conformal survival prediction with finite-
    sample coverage guarantees, and time-dependent 'SHAP' explanations via
    'SurvSHAP(t)'. Methodology is based on regularised Cox regression
