Class for Google Sheets formulas
In order to write a formula into Google Sheets, you need to store it as an
object of class googlesheets4_formula

"regular" character string from a string that should be interpreted as a
formula. googlesheets4_formula
is an S3 class implemented using the vctrs package.
