Karl Wright updated LUCENE-6487:
--------------------------------
    Attachment: LUCENE-6487.patch

Updating the patch with "completed" functionality, although incompletely tested 
and with a known problem.  Specifically, paths are specified with a half-width 
for the straight segments, and that's been specified as an angle to date.  
That's fine, but with an ellipsoid, a pair of planes describing the corridor in 
that way might well fail to line up with the circles at the waypoints.  We 
really need to determine the bounding planes in a different manner to be 
consistent.  Something I will need to work out.

> WGS84 compatibility has been requested for geo3d.  This involves working with 
> an ellipsoid rather than a unit sphere.  The general formula for an ellipsoid 
> is:
> x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 + z^2/c^2 = 1
