WKTParser should create a linestring (curve) for linearrings, not rings
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOT-1355
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-1355
             Project: GeoTools
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: core main
    Affects Versions: 2.4-M3
            Reporter: Graham Davis
            Assignee: Graham Davis
             Fix For: 2.4-M4


In debugging GEOT-1311, I've come across some WKT tests that are failing 
because they are creating RingImpl objects from the WKT LINEARRING.  Because of 
this, they are considered Areas when doing Relate() operations, when really 
they aren't Areas, they should be closed linestrings.  The ISO Geometry 19107 
specs define Rings as "a single connected component of a GM_SurfaceBoundary".  
So a Ring should always be used as part of a SurfaceBoundary, and in this case 
we definitely aren't a surface (polygon).

The parser should be updated to create and return a curve instead of a ring for 
the WKT LINEARRING.
