Computes standardized mean differences (`d`) and sampling variances (`v`) for the
extraction YAML `papers/dingeszakkou2019muchstakeknowledge/dingeszakkou2019muchstakeknowledge.yaml`.
For Studies 1-2, the meta-analytic effect sizes are recomputed from the published
two-group descriptives rather than taken from the paper's Tukey HSD `d`, because
the reported values align with the omnibus three-group residual SD rather than the
pairwise pooled SD used for standard between-groups SMDs. These pairwise SMDs are
computed with `esc::esc_mean_sd`, following the current project template.
