The serial counterpart of sim_template(): the same seed and stream layout
as a one-process run, executed in the current R session with no cluster.
Useful for debugging a worker before running it in parallel, and for the
one-core baseline of a timing experiment. The result equals
sim_template(worker, seed, n, n_reps, 1, ...)[[1]].
Examples
theta_hat <- sim_template_serial(iqr_worker, 1234, 100, 20, 5)
round(theta_hat, 3)
