Return schema with Read results #5

Closed connormanning closed 9 years ago

An invalid PDAL Dimension name will be silently omitted from the binary results of a Read command. Currently, clients should base their requested schemas on the results of the Schema command, however it would be useful to provide the ability for a client to use a static schema with all the Dimensions they recognize/care about.

E.g. a rendering client could always send XYZRGBI, and a missing 'Intensity' Dimension would be silently omitted in the binary results.

Invalid dimensions are no longer handled in a way that makes this necessary.
