Description
### Describe the bug
fields that have latitude and longitude simply don't bin on MongoDB

### To Reproduce

2) ensure that latitude and longitude have semantic types
3) try making a grid map with the people table
### Expected behavior
It should work in the same way as in the rest of the tables
### Logs
NA
### Information about your Metabase installation
```JSON
it has always been like that, I believe
```
### Severity

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by adding MongoDB, checking latitude and longitude semantic types, and creating a grid map with the people table. Trace how binning is handled for MongoDB compared with other tables; done means the grid map bins latitude and longitude consistently and the relevant behavior is covered by tests.
