Support rectangular or arbitrary shapes in geo location filtering

[vslaykovsky]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Need to filter documents by geo areas with shapes different from circles.
E.g. filter all documents from California.

Describe the solution you'd like
Define area using rectangular box coordinates or using a polygon (sequence of points)

Describe alternatives you've considered
Use multiple geoLocation conditions combined using OR.

Have you considered storing the location names/logical id in a separate field, used for filtering, and then use Geo search ranking features for ranking?

Ranking from a position match

Thanks, this is another alternative, though it's still more convenient to have support of arbitrary shapes here as logical IDs may come from multiple different map scales and quickly become unmanagable in our use case.
