      In view resolution we need to translate all the parts of a .find() query into equivalent aggregation stages.  Currently $near and $nearSphere aren't supported on views because syntactically they're part of the .find() predicate, which becomes a $match, but semantically they also sort the results, which $match can't.

      We should be able to translate any .find() predicate to a combination of $geoNear and $match stages.  We'll need to make $geoNear's 'distanceField' argument optional.
