Fix lineOffset spherical geometry errors (fix #2278)

Project geometries to Azimuthal Equidistant projection prior to transformation and then back to WGS84.

There is an earlier similar PR however it has a unique implementation whereas this implementation duplicates the projection code from the buffer implementation. Ideally, this projection code would eventually be refactored into a utility and maintained in a single location

@rowanwins perhaps the best person to weigh in on this? It seems sensible to me but perhaps there's side effects I'm not seeing

This PR might help in some circumstances but I don't think it will resolve some of the bigger underlying issues unfortunantly (eg #1439). PS I did do a quick check and alas
