The inputs we use for these run tests have open options, and now
that we are respecting these and passing them to the GDAL command
we can't run these tests on the earlier GDAL versions which
didn't support open options.
The commands generated by the corresponding algorithms are already
well tested and still run on the earlier GDAL releases, it's just
the actual run test which will be skipped.
We now pass on the FORCE_SRS_DETECTION=YES open option which we
were previously dropping, so the results for these commands is
slightly different
Also drop test for older GEOS versions, it's covered by a test
for more recent versions and we have extensive test covering
the GDAL command line for this tool anyway.
The creategrid algorithm had a limit of 0 to 1000000000.0.
I'm removing this limitation to go beyond this maximum limit, but above all to
allow a negative limit, which in fact allows an empty space
(the opposite of superposition).
Adds an optional end point distance threshold parameter to the
network analysis tools. Previously (and still, by default) endpoints
will ALWAYS be snapped to the nearest point in the network layer,
regardless of how far away from the network they actually are. This
can result in meaningless results, as the tools will happily snap
points to a road hundreds of kilometers away :)
Now, there's an optional end point distance threshold parameter
for these tools. The behaviour of the threshold depends on the
algorithm:
- For the “Service area (from layer)” tool an optional new output
was added for “non routable features”. This output will contain
any features which were deemed too far from the network. All
other features which are within tolerance distance to the
network will be stored in the standard output from the tool.
- For the “Service area (from point)” tool an error will be raised
if the point is too far from the network
- For the “Shortest path (point to point)” tool an error will
be raised if either the source or destination points are too far
from the network.
- For the “Shortest path (layer to point)” and “Shortest path (point
to layer)” tools:
- An error will be raised if the **point** is too far from the network.
- A new optional output was added for “non routable features”. This
output will contain any features which were deemed too far from the
network. All other features which are within tolerance distance to
the network will be stored in the standard output from the tool.

Use the processing context's ellipsoid instead of a hardcoded
WGS84 ellipsoid for distance calculations during network
analysis, so that the lengths used will exactly match other
measurement tools used on the same features in the same
project.
Otherwise unittest thinks the function is a test itself and runs it
accordingly, and then raises a deprecation warning because
return values are not permitted from test functions
