#' nLSI (class level)
#'
#' @description Normalized landscape shape index (Aggregation metric)
#'
#' @param landscape A categorical raster object: SpatRaster; Raster* Layer, Stack, Brick; stars or a list of SpatRasters.
#'
#' @details
#' \deqn{nLSI = \frac{e_{i} - \min e_{i}} {\max e_{i} - \min e_{i}}}
#' where \eqn{e_{i}} is the total edge length in cell surfaces and \eqn{\min e_{i}}
#' \eqn{\max e_{i}} are the minimum and maximum total edge length in cell surfaces, respectively.
#'
#' nLSI is an 'Aggregation metric'. It is closely related to the \code{\link{lsm_c_lsi}}
#' and describes the ratio of the actual edge length of class i in relation to the
#' hypothetical range of possible edge lengths of class i (min/max).
#'
#' Currently, nLSI ignores all background cells when calculating the minimum and maximum
#' total edge length. Also, a correct calculation of the minimum and maximum
#' total edge length is currently only possible for rectangular landscapes.
#'
#' Because the metric is based on distances or areas please make sure your data
#' is valid using \code{\link{check_landscape}}.
#'
#' \subsection{Units}{None}
#' \subsection{Ranges}{0 <= nlsi <= 1}
#' \subsection{Behaviour}{Equals nLSI = 0 when only one squared patch is present. nLSI
#' increases the more disaggregated patches are and equals nLSI = 1 for a maximal disaggregated
#' (i.e. a "checkerboard pattern").}
