vitopack: Actuarial Helpers for Triangles, Exposures and Czech Birth Numbers

A collection of utilities that grew out of day-to-day non-life actuarial work at Com-PASS Advisory. Provides helpers for building chain-ladder triangles (cumulative, decumulative, run-off, development factors with optional weighting), constructing exposure columns from policy start/end dates, parsing Czech birth numbers ('rodné číslo') into dates, generating smooth RGB color palettes for charts, and loading multi-sheet 'xlsx'/'xlsb' files into a list of data frames. The chain-ladder helpers follow the standard methodology of Mack (1993) <doi:10.2143/AST.23.2.2005092>.
