Is there a FOSS implementation for Discrete Global Grid System & Global Statistical Geospatial Framework?
Not yet. However, I agree with your interpretation that several are close and one of the OGC DGGS working group key activities is to establish a registry of DGGS implementations so this is likely to ...

Uber H3 DGGS: Table of largest hexagons per resolution?
We don't have a table like this, though we do have a ticket to create one FWIW. For max and min, you don't have to iterate over the entire grid.
The smallest cells are the pentagons at the vertices ...

Converting line to set of H3 hexagons?
Same problem, similar solution. Only one additional step that seemed to provide a smoother / more accurate result (i.e., H3s that more closely follow the shape of the line).
For each set of points ...
