Wrappers around the NHL Edge analytics backend at
api-web.nhle.com/v1/edge/... (and the cat variants at
api-web.nhle.com/v1/cat/edge/...). These surface the per-skater,
per-goalie, and per-team advanced metrics that power the public NHL Edge
UI: shot location, shot speed, skating speed, skating distance, zone
time, comparisons, and top-10 leaderboards. All wrappers route through
.nhl_edge_api() / .nhl_edge_to_df() in helpers_nhl_edge.R so the
/now vs /{season}/{game_type} URL split and the assorted response
shapes are handled in one place.
