Compute the geodetic forward solution, i.e. the destination given a starting point, bearing and distance.
There are multiple algorithms for this, and there is a bit of a trade off involved in deciding the best one for a given task. We use Haversine as it is fast, reasonably accurate, and doesn't have Vincenty convergence issues.
