Force the usage of projected coordinates for nearest-neighbor-lookup in `GridAtPoints` #57

The implementation for GridAtPoints that I will merge soon via #41 will use lon and lat, because I have no time to change that now. If nnear > 1 the nearest-neighbor-loopup will not be correct because of distorted distances in lon-lat-space.

Hence, we need to either reproject on the fly or force the usage of projected coordinates and not lon and 'lat`.
