Description

It would be great if this could support multiple projections- especially 4326 (equirectangular), or allow for creating a custom CRS like we can in Leaflet.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by tracing how geojson-vt currently handles projections, then compare the requested 4326 support with Leaflet's custom CRS approach. Done should mean multiple projections, including 4326, or custom CRS creation is supported and covered by tests.
