[gdal-dev] Degree symbols

[Andrew C Aitchison]

Now that PROJ data includes "AREA" descriptions with degree symbols,
what to people think about the attached patch which makes CPLDecToDMS
report angles with the degree symbol too ?

Sadly, the reverse function CPLDMSToDec will need more work as we
cannot fudge the fact that the degree symbol is a wchar there.
