Description
This library assumes that a GeoJSON object can only contain Feature and FeatureCollection objects, but it can also contain raw Geometry objects such as Point or MultiPolygon:
```json
{
"type": "Point",
"coordinates": [0, 0],
}
```
We haven’t been running into these geometries because we rely on [geojson-normalize](https://github.com/mapbox/geojson-normalize/) to wrap them in FeatureCollections via [static-map-string-format](https://github.com/mapbox/static-map-string-format). We should either make geojson-normalize a dependency of this library or duplicate its functionality here.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the JavaScript entry points and dependency configuration in simplespec-to-gl-style, then compare the wrapping behavior provided by geojson-normalize and static-map-string-format. The work is done when raw GeoJSON geometries such as Point and MultiPolygon are accepted as FeatureCollections, with coverage for the supported input forms.
