Description: Provides raster grid logic, operations that describe a
        discretized rectangular domain and do not require access to
        materialized data. Grids are arrays with dimension and extent,
        and many operations are functions of dimension only: number of
        columns, number of rows, or they are a combination of the
        dimension and the extent the range in x and the range in y in
        that order. Here we provide direct access to this logic without
        need for connection to any materialized data or formats. Grid
        logic includes functions that relate the cell index to row and
        column, or row and column to cell index, row, column or cell
        index to position. These methods are described in Loudon, TV,
        Wheeler, JF, Andrew, KP (1980)
        <doi:10.1016/0098-3004(80)90015-1>, and implementations were in
        part derived from Hijmans R (2024)
        <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.terra>.
