improve naming of default coordinates for GeoModelAdmin¶

Description

The GeoModelAdmin class currently has properties of default_lon and default_lat. While these are reasonable names when using an unprojected coordinate system, they are misleading if a subclass with another projection is used (such as the spherical mercator projection used by the class OSMGeoAdmin). This may lead to confused users, for example: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/11094.

I would suggest changing the default coordinate names to default_x and default_y.

This isn't obviously worth the backwards incompatibility.
