Description: Implementation of Bayesian and frequentist Weibull Shape
        Parameter (WSP) tests for signal detection in pharmacovigilance
        based on right-censored time-to-event data to flag associations
        between drugs and adverse events. The WSP test is based on the
        assumption of constant hazard reflected by a Weibull type
        distribution with shape parameters equal to one. Based on the
        shape parameter estimates (posterior distribution or point
        estimate), the WSP test method performs a hypothesis test on
        each shape parameter and combines them to a decision on the
        presence of a signal. Methods described in Sauzet and Cornelius
        (2022) <doi:10.3389/fphar.2022.889088>, Sauzet et al. (2024)
        <doi:10.1007/s40264-024-01460-2>, and Dyck and Sauzet (2025)
