Iimplement the Military Grid Reference System for tiling
--------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: LUCENE-2646
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2646
             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: contrib/spatial
            Reporter: Grant Ingersoll


The current tile based system in Lucene is broken.  We should standardize on a 
common way of labeling grids and provide that as an option.  Based on previous 
conversations with Ryan McKinley and Chris Male, it seems the Military Grid 
Reference System (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_grid_reference_system) 
is a good candidate for the replacement due to its standard use of metric tiles 
of increasing orders of magnitude (1, 10, 100, 1000, etc.)
