21850	Make GeometryField.geodetic() case insensitive	olivergeorge@…	nobody	"The current implementation is quite fragile with regards to case sensitivity.  The proposed patch makes it operate in a case insensitive manner.

This became an issue while working on a spatial backend for Microsoft SQL Server. The WKT string they use capitalises the unit name (e.g. ""Degree"") which doesn't match any entries in the GeometryField.geodetic_units list.  The default values don't follow a case convention making it hard to work around without a patch. Are

The proposed change makes two specific updates:
- default values in GeometryField.geodetic_units are now all lower case
- GeometryField.geodetic() to test against lower case unit name
