#' @title Rotate polygon
#' @description rotates polygon by specified angle
#'
#' @param p       A polygon object of sf or sp class
#' @param angle   Rotation angle in degrees
#' @param sp      (FALSE | TRUE) Output sp class object
#' @param anchor  Location to rotate polygon on options are "center", 
#'               "lower.left" and "upper.right" 
#'
#' @details 
#' The anchor is the location that the rotation is anchored to. The center
#' is the centroid where the lower.left and upper.right are based on the 
#' min or max of the coordinates respectively. 
#'
#' @return an sp or sf polygon object with rotated polygon
