What's the problem with deprecating it and use a new, more explicit name ?

 GEOSGeom_getSpatialDimension() maybe ?

Note that there are other functions which I think should be deprecated
so getDimension won't feel alone (the setOrdinate/getOrdinate ones
in particular, as they use 1-based index and in an undocumented way).
