Description: Provides functions to compute various germination indices
        such as germinability, median germination time, mean
        germination time, mean germination rate, speed of germination,
        Timson's index, germination value, coefficient of uniformity of
        germination, uncertainty of germination process, synchrony of
        germination etc. from germination count data. Includes
        functions for fitting cumulative seed germination curves using
        four-parameter hill function and computation of associated
        parameters. See the vignette for more, including full list of
        citations for the methods implemented.
