Research direction

Review the existing Fresnel-integral documentation in SpecialFunctions.jl and compare the requested MATLAB fresnels/fresnelc behavior with the referenced FresnelIntegrals.jl implementation. Determine the expected API and numerical behavior, then add the Fresnel and auxiliary Fresnel integrals with coverage for the supported cases.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hello guys, I notice there are Fresnel integral related docs there, but I don't see any implementation about Fresnel integral or auxiliary Fresnel integral, so I think this part is missing?

In MATLAB, we can use fresnels and fresnelc to compute the Fresnel integral, so I think it would be great to have that support in SpecialFunctions.jl

Besides, I notice there is an implementation out there: https://github.com/kiranshila/FresnelIntegrals.jl
