Summary: coordinateUncertaintyInMeters not taken into account when flagging as COUNTRY_COORDINATE_MISMATCH

Description: The issue is described in https://github.com/LifeWatchINBO/data-publication/issues/100. We use the centroid of the original 5x5km UTM square to populate {{decimalLatitude}} {{decimalLongitude}}. We also add a {{coordinateUncertaintyInMeters}} that encompasses the whole square.
Centroid coordinates that fall outside country borders however, are flagged as {{COUNTRY_COORDINATE_MISMATCH}} by the occurrence processing and are not included in records considered georeferenced. This processing should take into account the {{coordinateUncertaintyInMeters}} when assessing if the occurrence falls within the borders of a country, and only raise an issue when it is truly incorrect, allowing the publisher to focus on fixing those.]]>
