Description
The built-in GeoJSON serializer is producing invalid GeoJSON. The serialized output has a section like:
"crs": {"type": "name", "properties": {"name": "EPSG:4326"}}
However, according to the GeoJSON the crs attribute was removed from the spec in August of 2016 (ref: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7946#appendix-B.1)
This is causing issues when trying to use GeoJSON as the intermediary data format for passing data to other libraries (e.g. Leaflet https://leafletjs.com considers GeoJSON with the crs attribute as invalid and fails to parse it).
