Description
Hey team! 👋
The native iOS/Android SDKs have a Geofencing API (`GeofencingFactory`, `GeofencingService`, `GeofencingObserver`) - any chance this could be exposed in the Flutter plugin?
Would be great to have:
- `GeofencingService` for adding/removing geofences
- Event callbacks for entry/exit/dwell
- Point + Polygon geometry support
Is this on the roadmap? Happy to help with a contribution if there's interest!
Thanks for the great SDK!

Research direction
Start by comparing the native GeofencingFactory, GeofencingService, and GeofencingObserver APIs with the Flutter plugin's existing architecture. Determine how adding and removing geofences, entry/exit/dwell callbacks, and point and polygon geometry should map into Flutter. Done means the requested geofencing capabilities are exposed consistently and covered by the relevant plugin tests.
