fix test_std_geodesic_geodsolve26 failure #23

Closed stonylohr closed 3 years ago

This standard Karney unit test currently fails. Fix geodesic behavior to make it work.

This tests a spherical case. I initially think of this as a medium-to-low priority. NASA's factsheet for Venus lists it as spherical, and it would be unsurprising if other spherical cases do really come up in practice, but they'll tend to be much less common than oblate cases.
