Oracle GIS test failures for Django 1.9

[Tim Graham]

After the patch for #24688 to add support for new-style GIS functions, some test failures remain:

gis_tests.geoapp.test_functions.GISFunctionsTests.test_difference

New since Jenkins was updated from Oracle 11 to Oracle 12.1.0.2.0:

gis_tests.geoapp.test_functions.GISFunctionsTests.test_sym_difference

Items in the first set but not the second: u'POLYGON ((-103.0024339999999938 36.5003969999999995, -103.0419239999999945 36.5004390000000001, .............

Having error tracebacks would be nice, too.

Which Oracle version has been used? In test_difference_mixed_srid test we can find crucial line :

       185: geom = Point(556597.4, 2632018.6, srid=3857)  # Spherical mercator

as we can see srid=3857 is needed, but it appeared in 11.2.0.3.

​http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24693_01/appdev.11203/e11830/sdo_newfeat.htm
(section "Support for Google Maps with Spatial Applications")

In previous versions we will need to use srid=3785 instead.

Jenkins uses Oracle 11.2.0.1.0.

Jenkins is upgraded to Oracle 12.1.0.2.0. I updated the ticket description with the test failures.
