Turn coordinates into the nearest places: addresses, POIs and localities with distance in metres. The inverse of geocode. Provide `lat` and `lon`; returns up to `limit` (default 5, max 10) results, nearest first, each with name, one-line label, lat/lon, type, address parts and distance_m, plus categories and a `details` object of display tags (opening_hours, website, phone, wikipedia, ...) on POI hits when the index carries them. Every result also carries `bearing_deg` and a spoken `direction`. Pass `heading_deg` (degrees clockwise from true north, 0 = north, 90 = east) and results are described from where the user stands — "ahead and slightly to your right, about 80 metres" — with a signed `relative_bearing_deg` (negative left, positive right); without a heading the phrasing falls back to cardinals ("north-east of you"), so this works with or without a compass. Add `fov_deg` to keep only what lies within that cone of the heading — it is the FULL width, so 90 keeps what lies within 45 degrees either side of dead ahead; anything dropped is counted in `out_of_view`. Prefer reading `direction` aloud over coordinates.
