Description

Hello,

I'm trying to use LayerMapping in order to import Geographic Data in my database, in "update" mode. That is, I use "unique" parameter to check if LayerMapping should update existing entries or create new ones:

lm = LayerMapping(
            target_class,
            path_to_my_shp_file,
            my_mapping,
            unique=tuple_of_django_fields,
        )
lm.save(strict=True, verbose=True)

When target_class has a geometry of type PointField, I get an error:

'Point' object is not iterable
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "file_on_disk/sia/gis_import/views.py", line 12, in launch_import
    databatch.import_geographic_data()
  File "file_on_disk/sia/gis_import/models.py", line 66, in import_geographic_data
    lm.save(strict=True, verbose=True)
  File "file_on_disk/venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/django/contrib/gis/utils/layermapping.py", line 728, in save
    _save()
  File "file_on_disk/venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/django/contrib/gis/utils/layermapping.py", line 653, in _save
    for g in new:
TypeError: 'Point' object is not iterable

I'm using Django 5.2 so I have an older version of layermapping but it seems the bug is still here in present source code (6.2 is not out yet as I write this ticket):
