faissR 0.99.47

Initial Bioconductor submission

• Declare the roxygen2 generator and normalize vignette continuation indentation for BiocCheck source-format validation.
• Provide FAISS-backed CPU nearest-neighbour search with optional CUDA and cuVS support, capability inspection, and explicit unsupported-route errors.
• Support Euclidean, cosine, and correlation search, optional float32 input, candidate ranking, reusable kNN prediction models, and k-means helpers.
• Provide GPU-resident nearest-neighbour results and a native C-callable interface for downstream packages.
• Include reference documentation, installation guidance, and Biobase dataset examples in the vignette and help pages.
• Reject sparse, delayed, file-backed, and other matrix-like inputs before conversion, and demonstrate nearest-neighbor search on a documented dense single-cell PCA representation.
• Reconcile the JSS manuscript and replication material with the completed comparison, tuned-HNSW, and query-workload audits.
