Description
I would love to have population data exposed in the response geojson.
We frequently get issues opened which relate to sorting and it's difficult to debug them without seeing the population info.
This is a reasonably straight-forward task that could be completed by a first-time contributor or anyone with a few extra cycles.
any objections @pelias/contributors ?

Research direction
Start by tracing where the API constructs its response GeoJSON and where population data is available for sorting. Confirm that population appears in the GeoJSON properties and verify the resulting response with the API's existing checks or examples.
