/// Compute convex hull using QHull algorithm
///
/// QHull is a robust library for computing convex hulls in arbitrary dimensions.
/// This implementation handles various edge cases and provides fallbacks for
/// degenerate cases.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `points` - Input points (shape: npoints x n_dim)
///
/// # Returns
///
/// * Result containing a ConvexHull instance or an error
///
/// # Errors
///
/// * Returns error if QHull computation fails
/// * Falls back to special case handlers for small point sets
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```rust
/// use scirs2_spatial::convex_hull::algorithms::qhull::compute_qhull;
/// use scirs2_core::ndarray::array;
///
/// let points = array![[0.0, 0.0], [1.0, 0.0], [0.0, 1.0], [0.5, 0.5]];
