#' Approximate distances
#'
#' Approximate distances between two points or across the horizontal and vertical centerlines of a bounding box.
#'
#' @param x object that can be coerced to a bounding box with \code{\link{bb}}, or a pair of coordintes (vector of two). In the former case, the distance across the horizontal and vertical centerlines of the bounding box are approximated. In the latter case, \code{y} is also required; the distance between points \code{x} and \code{y} is approximated.
#' @param y a pair of coordintes, vector of two. Only required when \code{x} is also a pair of coordintes.
#' @param projection projection code, needed in case \code{x} is a bounding box or when \code{x} and \code{y} are pairs of coordinates. See \code{\link{get_proj4}}
#' @param target target unit, one of: \code{"m"}, \code{"km"}, \code{"mi"}, and \code{"ft"}.
#' @return If \code{y} is specifyed, a list of two: unit and dist. Else, a list of three: unit, hdist (horizontal distance) and vdist (vertical distance).
