This method assumes the validity of the number passed in has already been checked, and that the number is suitable for geocoding. We consider fixed-line and mobile numbers possible candidates for geocoding.
If $userRegion is set, we also consider the region of the user. If the phone number is from the same region as the user, only a lower-level description will be returned, if one exists. Otherwise, the phone number's region will be returned, with optionally some more detailed information.
For example, for a user from the region "US" (United States), we would show "Mountain View, CA" for a particular number, omitting the United States from the description. For a user from the United Kingdom (region "GB"), for the same number we may show "Mountain View, CA, United States" or even just "United States".
