A simple geographical region bounded by two latitude lines, and two longitude lines, i.e., a
"rectangle". It's not really a rectangle, of course, because longitude lines are not really
parallel.
Intended for use in a geo-containment predicate filter.
Determines whether the given GeoPt value lies within this geographic region. If the
point lies on the border of the region it is considered to be contained.
