#4718: ST_Azimuth calculating with point of geography type returns negative value

---------------------+---------------------------
According to the doc description: The azimuth is angle is referenced from
north, and is positive clockwise: North = 0; East = π/2; South = π; West =
3π/2. But when giving two points of geography type, it returns negative
value. eg: \\
SELECT degrees(ST_Azimuth(ST_GeographyFromText('SRID=4326;POINT(77.46412
37.96999)'), ST_GeographyFromText('SRID=4326;POINT(77.46409 37.96999)')))
