 * Added support for Fay's generalized replication method, specifically the version proposed in Fay (1989): the key functions are `as_fays_gen_rep_design()` and `make_fays_gen_rep_factors()`, which are nearly identical to the generalized bootstrap functions `as_gen_boot_design()` and `make_gen_boot_factors()`.
