[Geocoding] Reverse Geocode Batch endpoint in Nominatim

Hello All,

I'm currently evaluating Nominatim for high volume reverse geocoding.  I
noticed that while geocoding has an undocumented "experimental" endpoint
for batch submissions, reverse geocoding does not.

I hacked one in, currently it only supports outputting in json, and takes
its arguments in a similar manner as the geocoding endpoint (i.e a
urlencoded bit of json as a GET parameter).

Is this something we'd want in the project?  I don't have access to any of
the development branches, I just pulled from master and made my changes, so
for all I know this is already in the works.  If its not, but we want the
feature, I can try to clean up my code a bit and submit a pull request, but
I'd need access to do that.
