#' @description
#' The `random_logistic_walk` function generates multiple random walks in 1, 2, or 3 dimensions.
#' Each walk is a sequence of steps where each step is a random draw from a logistic distribution.
#' The user can specify the number of walks, the number of steps in each walk, and the
#' parameters of the logistic distribution (location and scale). The function
#' also allows for sampling a proportion of the steps and optionally sampling with replacement.
#'
#' @details
#' This function is a flexible generator for random walks where each step is drawn from a logistic distribution.
#' The user can control the number of walks, steps per walk, and the location and scale parameters for the distribution.
#' The function supports 1, 2, or 3 dimensions, and augments the output with cumulative statistics for each walk.
#' Sampling can be performed with or without replacement, and a proportion of steps can be sampled if desired.
#'
#' @param .num_walks An integer specifying the number of random walks to generate. Default is 25.
#' @param .n An integer specifying the number of steps in each walk. Default is 100.
#' @param .location A numeric value indicating the location parameter of the logistic distribution. Default is 0.
#' @param .scale A numeric value indicating the scale parameter of the logistic distribution. Default is 1.
#' @param .initial_value A numeric value indicating the initial value of the walks. Default is 0.
#' @param .samp A logical value indicating whether to sample the logistic distribution values. Default is TRUE.
#' @param .replace A logical value indicating whether sampling is with replacement. Default is TRUE.
#' @param .sample_size A numeric value between 0 and 1 specifying the proportion of `.n` to sample. Default is 0.8.
#' @param .dimensions An integer specifying the number of dimensions (1, 2, or 3). Default is 1.
#'
#' @return A tibble containing the generated random walks with columns depending on the number of dimensions:
#' \itemize{
#'   \item `walk_number`: Factor representing the walk number.
#'   \item `step_number`: Step index.
#'   \item `y`: If `.dimensions = 1`, the value of the walk at each step.
#'   \item `x`, `y`: If `.dimensions = 2`, the values of the walk in two dimensions.
#'   \item `x`, `y`, `z`: If `.dimensions = 3`, the values of the walk in three dimensions.
#' }
#'
#' The following are also returned based upon how many dimensions there are and could be any of x, y and or z:
#' \itemize{
#'   \item `cum_sum`: Cumulative sum of `dplyr::all_of(.dimensions)`.
#'   \item `cum_prod`: Cumulative product of `dplyr::all_of(.dimensions)`.
#'   \item `cum_min`: Cumulative minimum of `dplyr::all_of(.dimensions)`.
#'   \item `cum_max`: Cumulative maximum of `dplyr::all_of(.dimensions)`.
#'   \item `cum_mean`: Cumulative mean of `dplyr::all_of(.dimensions)`.
#' }
#'
#' The tibble includes attributes for the function parameters.
