Research direction
Start by locating the @nativescript/geolocation plugin entry point and the implementation of .locate(), then inspect any platform-specific iOS and Android code and existing tests. Clarify how a starting location should be passed and define done as successfully locating the requested place, address, or coordinate from that starting point on both platforms.
