Convert a base salary from a home country into a cost-of-living-fair local equivalent: S_local = S_base × (I_target / I_home), where I is a US-relative price level. Omit target to receive a localized salary matrix across every country in the source — useful for pricing one offer across many markets. Returns USD purchasing-power equivalents, not currency-converted amounts.
