convert nothing and missing

[alex-s-gardner]

right now:

using GeometryBasics
import GeoInterface as GI

this errors

GI.convert(GeometryBasics, missing)

and this errors

GI.convert(GeometryBasics, nothing)

should they instead return missing and nothing respectively?

[rafaqz]

Maybe missing should as it's meant to propagate? But nothing wants handling

[asinghvi17]

Agreed, missing nothing should always error IMO. But we can build missing into GeoInterface (I think)?

Missing could be propagated, but doesn't really need to be imho. Convert takes something that is a geometry, if you pass in something else (say 1), you can expect a (method)error.
