Constructs a rectangle whose edges are lines of latitude and longitude.
The result is a planar WGS84 rectangle.
If (east - west) ≥ 360 then the longitude range will be normalized to -180 to +180; otherwise they will be treated as designating points on a circle (e.g., east may be numerically less than west).
