Comment(by nw):

 I think the attached patch should provide support for dumping
 circstrings.  I looked over the defined geometry types in
 lwgeom.h, and there are fifteen, ten of those are collection
 types.  Dumppoints now has support for the remaining five
 directly, and will treat as a collection anything that
 lwgeom_is_collection() thinks is one.  In other words, unless
 I have missed something, ST_DumpPoints should now produce
 reasonable results for all geometry types.  Geography types are
 still not supported, but you could cast to geom first.

 I changed the regression tests as appropriate.  I will eventually
 submit a more comprehensive dumppoints test suite, but I don't know
 when I will get to that.
