Description: Fits regularised multi-task learning models where
        relationships between tasks are controlled via orthogonality or
        disjoint-support constraints. Supports regression, binary
        classification, and censored survival data. In survival mode,
        time-to-event outcomes are converted into binary labels at
        user-defined thresholds, enabling the discovery of features
        with time-varying effects that standard proportional-hazards
        models cannot detect. Implements the penalty described in
        Vervier et al. (2014) <https://hal.science/hal-00985654>.
