Description
I notice that there is turf-polygon-reduce (https://github.com/Turfjs/turf/issues/240), a separate module which generates poles of inaccessibility for polygons, which didn't make it into Turf. But since then, there is https://github.com/mapbox/polylabel, a faster algorithm for generating good label placement spots from polygons.
Could this be bundled as a Turf package?

Research direction
Start by reading the linked turf-polygon-reduce issue and the mapbox/polylabel project to understand the proposed pole-of-inaccessibility behavior. Confirm that bundling polylabel as a Turf package is still wanted, then define the package scope and completion criteria before implementation.
