update Transform geo/screen conversions for tilt

[incanus]

In #2116 we have a PR for tilt/pitch. However we have yet to update Transform::pixelForLatLng & Transform::latLngForPixel to actually use the matrix instead of just doing trig for center, zoom, and rotation, so that pitch can be factored in. As a result, we get things like the floating user dot on iOS and these conversions will be off for e.g. long-press marker drop gestures, too.

Note that we do already account for world wrap and the date line in the current routines.

pixelForLatLng() and latLngForPixel() need to work with pitch, or things like fitToBounds() will yield unexpected results.

[incanus]

Right, this is not just cosmetic.

Per chat, it's unclear if -[MGLMapView metersPerPixelAtLatitude:] is affected by this. Need to investigate MapKit.

These should be implemented in 1551424 and fixed in 1081992.

I'm still working on:

• making the same location stay under your finger during panning, zooming, etc
• making fitBounds work better

[ansis]

Gesture improvements are finished in https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-native/commits/perspective-continued

• when you pan the same location stays under your finger
• when you zoom the location at the center of the pinch stays the same
• when you rotate the location at the center of the pinch stays the same

making fitBounds work better

Is above and/or anything else here still actionable @ansis?

[1ec5]

This is still actionable: fitBounds does not account for the trapezoidal shape of the bounds when the map is tilted. As a result, the map’s camera fails to round-trip correctly (tending to zoom out) when the map starts out tilted.

[incanus]

Just a clarification question here — does the fact that MapKit doesn’t use perspective, but just simple tilt, behave differently in this regard? I wonder if MKMapRect etc. automatically account for tilt.

@incanus is it possible to share what's the difference between Mapbox perspective and Map kit tilt and why one picks over the other?
