Emily Boudreaux 6b57738330 docs(docs): built docs
Note for now much of the docs is LLM written. This was done to save time and focus on code development. The docs have been LOOSLEY reviewed. However, the code itself has been either fully written by hand or fully reviewed. Therefore, the docs should at the moment be seen as a loose resource rather than authoratiative (and this is on top of the general ability for docs to drift)

.PP
Evaluate a solved dimensionless profile with cubic Hermite interpolation, without extrapolation\&.

.PP
Evaluate physical fields, continuing into vacuum beyond the stellar surface\&. The potential vanishes at infinity\&. Density, pressure, and enthalpy are zero at and beyond the surface, including the exterior side of the incompressible density jump\&.

.PP
Integrate theta'' + 2 theta'/xi + theta^n = 0 from the regular center\&. The central series follows Boudreaux's original power-series recurrence\&. Both dependent variables now advance through the same four Runge–Kutta stages\&. A missing surface is a valid finite-interval result, including the n >= 5 solutions\&. Exhausting the step budget or producing an unrepresentable numerical state returns a failure instead\&.
