v.in.csv: Add reprojection support using pure GRASS #837

Open wenzeslaus opened 1 year ago

v.in.csv currently requires pyproj. It would be better if it is handled without additional dependency using m.proj or different GRASS location.

This was also mentioned in the original PR by @mlennert.

As I noted in that discussion, having an API for the location-reprojection exercise (such as Session in a temporary location) would be desired to avoid duplicating the v.import functionality. Alternatively, m.proj may work, but there might be a reason why I did not use it.

Notably, I'm not assigning this to myself and the issue is up for grabs. Given that the ideal solution includes better API in code, this might not be a good fit for complete beginners, but it is a good issue if you already know some GRASS or are comfortable with Python.
