Function getSectionBBox

getSectionBBox(route: Route, section: SectionProps): OptionalBBox
Calculates the bounding box for a route section.

It samples the section's coordinates at three points:
- The start point, at startPointIndex.
- The middle point, halfway between start and end.
- The end point, at endPointIndex.
Parameters
- route: Route
  The route containing the section.
- section: SectionProps
  The section to calculate the bbox for.
Returns OptionalBBox
The bounding box as [minLng, minLat, maxLng, maxLat], or undefined if the section or route is invalid.
Remarks
- Sampling three points is efficient and keeps good accuracy.
- It returns undefined if the route has no coordinates or the section indices are invalid.
- It uses the existing bbox utilities for a consistent calculation.
Example
```
const section = route.properties.sections.country[0];
// section = { id: 'section-1', startPointIndex: 0, endPointIndex: 3, countryCodeISO3: 'NLD' }

const bbox = getSectionBBox(route, section);
// Returns: [minLng, minLat, maxLng, maxLat] spanning the section, or undefined
```
