[pdal] pdal pipeline giving garbage in postgres

Hi Howard,

Ideally the process would be to load a multitude of las files in one go. As
far as I know the pdal-pipeline process is only dealing with one las file
at a time so what I'm doing is preparing the database with the correct
schema in pointcloud_formats, adding the correct pcid id to a pipeline.xml
file and then feeding the las files one by one (by copying to a temporary
input file) to pdal pipeline.
That part where I prepare the database went wrong this time, because the
output of --pgpointcloudschema apparently doesn't correspond with what pdal
actually feeds into pgpointcloud.

>From what I can see in the different schema's, the order of the 'position'
is mixed up. One has 'X' on the first position whereas the correct one has
'Intensity' on the first position. I can send you both xml schemas if you
like for comparison.

Best,
 Tom
