[Featureserver] Json: unrounding of coordinates

[Josh Livni]

I think it's fair to say that for most purposes FeatureServer users don't
mind to lose the extra decimal places, but this is not necessarily true:
 It's quite possible someone is working on a project in a geographically
small area and needs/expects 10+ significant digits.  I'd accept a patch
where this could be defined in featureserver.cfg, for example.
