filtering the object based on coordinates

[stemangiola]

There are two ways we can implement and document of how filtering based on spatial coordinates

• object |> filter(rectangle(x, y, x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max)), for which you can build a wrapper on top object |> filter_rectangle(x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max)
• object |> filter(circle(x, y, x_center, y_center, radius)), for which you can build a wrapper on top object |> filter_circle(x_center, y_center, radius)

the function rectangle would be equivalent of x |> magrittr::between(x_min, x_max) & y |> magrittr::between(y_min, y_max)
