Description
Implement a plugin to read from a .geojson file.
A sample GeoJSON can be found at: https://gist.github.com/turicas/fa7627a00ce51e51e192
Questions:
- Should we import only points or polygons too?
- If we import more than polygons, how it will be represented?
- Should we implement geo-related field types?

Research direction
Start by reviewing the repository's existing plugin patterns and the sample GeoJSON linked in the issue. Before implementation, resolve whether points, polygons, or both should be imported, how multiple geometry types should be represented, and whether geo-related field types are needed; done means those choices are documented and a working .geojson reader is implemented.
