Description: Extracts reproducible geometric and urban-morphology descriptors from
    polygon and multipart polygon building footprints stored as 'sf' objects,
    including area, perimeter, compactness, shape, topology, convexity, orientation,
    and optional building-height and floor-area metrics. Compares polygon footprints
    across periods using the intersection-over-union (Jaccard) index (Jaccard,
    1912) <doi:10.1111/j.1469-8137.1912.tb05611.x> to identify new constructions,
    potential demolitions, and footprint changes. Supports vector file formats
    readable by 'sf', including Shapefiles and GeoPackage (GPKG) vector files with
    named layers, optional boundary clipping, and reprojection to a common coordinate
    reference system. Returned 'sf' objects preserve source attributes and geometry
    for spatial analysis and downstream workflows, with optional parallel processing
    using 'future' for larger feature-extraction jobs.
