As suggested at https://github.com/gbv/jskos-server, support searching for Wikidata items near a given coordinate. Add query parameters near and distance to /concept. distance is required because Wikidata SPARQL interface will time-out without limitation. See SPARQL distance-function for implementation.

Distance should better be in meters. A default value could be configured in the wikidata-jskos instance to make the query parameter optional.
