Description
get_values() should have an argument, like index: bool=False, that should return the index when index=True.
Returning the index of shapes and points is straighforward, but currently for returning the index of single-scale and multi-scale labels we use the private function _get_unique_label_values_as_index(). get_values() would make the access more ergonomic.
- when implemented, update the tables notebook removing the reference to the private function.

Research direction
Start by reading the existing get_values() implementation and the private _get_unique_label_values_as_index() helper to understand how shapes, points, and single- or multi-scale labels are handled. Add the index option described in the issue, then update the tables notebook to remove its private-function reference. Done means get_values(index=True) provides the relevant index and the notebook no longer calls the private helper.
