Description: R interface to query UCSC bigWig files using UCSC Genome
        Browser code (Kent et al.). Supports all bigWig access modes
        including HTTP access to remote files. Provides probe-level and
        base-pair resolution queries, strand-aware metaprofile
        computation, and mappability correction via bwMap objects.
