Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It's not always feasible for humans to know the coordinates of a location. Numbers are already harder to remember, more so longer floating values like coordinates, and it can be annoying for users to go and handpick the coordinates. However, it is very easy to remember the names of locations, e.g., 'Cairo, Egypt'.

This function will return a bounding box of that location, which can then be fed into the API for the Mapillary Python SDK, for which results can be returned as desired.

Describe the solution you'd like
Some function that does all the underlying location -> coordinates logic at the low level. Either we make a utility function that users can use, or we make something as simple as the solution that osmnx suggests, which is just taking in a string, and outputting some results for that, not bothering users deal with the numerical logic as well

Describe alternatives you've considered
NA

Additional context
This idea was slightly discussed in the 1st Maintainer Meeting on the 24th of June
