Add examples for how to use DuckDB to query geoparquet files

[rdhyee]

I managed to export the Smithonsian records with

isample export -j $ISAMPLES_JWT -f geoparquet -d /tmp -q 'source:SMITHSONIAN'

Next challenge is how to do simple spatial queries. I installed duckdb on my Mac:

brew install duckdb

I installed duckdb extensions as suggested by cholmes/duckdb-geoparquet-tutorials:

INSTALL spatial;
LOAD spatial;
INSTALL httpfs;
LOAD httpfs;

I then

CREATE TABLE geoparquet_data AS SELECT * FROM read_parquet('isamples_export_2024_06_07_07_40_00_geo.parquet');

DESCRIBE geoparquet_data
  ;

to get

┌──────────────────────┬─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┬─────────┬─────────┬─────────┬─────────┐

but I'm trying to a spatial extent query:

D SELECT ST_Extent(geometry) AS extent FROM geoparquet_data;
Binder Error: No function matches the given name and argument types 'ST_Extent(BLOB)'. You might need to add explicit type casts.

How to fix?
