#' Convert H3 cell indexes to vertex representations

#' @template x
#' @param n Integer. Vertex number to retrieve. Must be in the range 0–5 for
#'   hexagons and 0–4 for pentagons. Only used in `ddbh3_h3_to_vertex()`.

#' 
#' @details
#' The functions cover the full vertex workflow:
#' * `ddbh3_h3_to_vertex()` returns a single vertex of an H3 cell, identified
#'   by its vertex number `n` (0–5 for hexagons, 0–4 for pentagons), as an H3
#'   vertex string
#' * `ddbh3_h3_to_vertexes()` returns all vertices of an H3 cell as H3 vertex
#'   strings — either nested (one row per cell) or unnested (one row per vertex)
#'   depending on `nested`
#' * `ddbh3_vertex_to_lat()` returns the latitude of an H3 vertex string
#' * `ddbh3_vertex_to_lon()` returns the longitude of an H3 vertex string
#' * `ddbh3_vertex_to_spatial()` converts H3 vertex strings to spatial point
#'   geometries. If the input column is nested, vertices are automatically
#'   unnested and aggregated into a `MULTIPOINT` geometry per cell
