Returns the signed area of a geodesic polygon defined by path on Earth.
The result has the same absolute value as GMSGeometryArea(); it is positive if the points of
path are in counter-clockwise order, and negative otherwise.
The same restrictions as on GMSGeometryArea() apply.

The result's magnitude mirrors `GMSGeometryArea()`, but its sign indicates point order: positive for counter-clockwise, negative otherwise. It shares the same constraints as `GMSGeometryArea()`.
