//@function Calculates Regression Channels with parallel lines equidistant from a central linear regression line
//@param period Lookback period for regression calculation (period > 1)
//@param source Source series for regression calculation (usually close)
//@param multiplier Distance multiplier for channel bands (multiplier > 0)
//@returns Tuple containing [upper_band, regression_line, lower_band]
//@optimized Uses linear regression with O(n) complexity per bar
