Description

Add grouping array to collections similar to the key-based grouping that occurs in the linref.EventsCollection class. This would allow more advanced operations to be conducted at the rangel level instead of directly with pandas operations. This will also require more proper implementation of index arrays in the collections.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the existing RangeCollection class and its index handling. Review how linref.EventsCollection implements key based grouping and adapt that pattern to add grouping and index arrays to the collections. Consider how the grouping will integrate with vectorized operations.
