validate_df: Validate Argument df

Description

Internal function to validate the argument df and ensure it complies with the requirements of the package functions. It performs the following actions:

• Stops if 'df' is NULL.

• Stops if 'df' cannot be coerced to data frame.

• Stops if 'df' has zero rows.

• Removes geometry column if the input data frame is an "sf" object.

• Removes non-numeric columns with as many unique values as rows df has.

• Converts logical columns to numeric.

• Converts factor and ordered columns to character.

• Tags the data frame with the attribute validated = TRUE to let the package functions skip the data validation.
