5630	Can't initialise empty geometries	Robert Coup	jbronn	"Initialising an empty Geometry:
{{{
g = GEOSGeometry(""GEOMETRYCOLLECTION EMPTY"")
g = GeometryCollection([])
}}}
fails with a `KeyError` in `GEOSPointer.set_children()` because it tries to look for a sequence in the first array item.

Attached patch fixes it, and provides some simple ""empty"" tests."		closed	GIS	dev		fixed			Unreviewed	1	0	0	0	0	0
