Description: Compiled implementations and generalizations of selected
    functions of the 'CAs' package by Ulrike Groemping for covering
    arrays. The package provides a C version of the search for the
    largest set of rows that can be made constant by permuting symbols,
    the power construction of Colbourn and Torres-Jimenez (2010)
    <doi:10.1090/conm/523/10309> for any strength, number of columns and
    number of levels, a counting kernel that tabulates value tuples for
    every set of t columns, and fast versions of the flexible-value tools
    and of the randomized post-optimization of Nayeri, Colbourn and
    Konjevod (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.ejc.2012.07.017>. Each function was
    tested against its 'CAs' counterpart, and the remaining differences
    are documented.
