Revision history for Geo::Location::Point

	accuracy_for(): the rule that turns the fields a match was made on into an
	accuracy level now lives here, beside ACCURACY_LEVELS, instead of in
	Geo::Coder::Free::Provenance.  The levels a point accepts and the rules that
	choose one of them therefore have a single home, and a caller does not have
	to keep two modules in step to describe a match
	It is a function, not a method - the fields are what a backend matched, not
	something a point carries - and it walks ACCURACY_LEVELS in order, so the
	most precise level with a matched field wins and the answer is always a level
	the vocabulary publishes.  A match on a row with none of the fields is still
	a named place, so it is a locality rather than left unsaid
	The field spellings and the precedence are unchanged from the copy that was
	in Provenance: house_number/number, road/street, postcode/post_code/zip,
	city/town/name, state/state_district/county/region and country, read
	case-insensitively

	t/attr.t: every field set a backend can match on derives the level it should,
	the most precise field wins whatever order the fields arrive in, the fields
	are read case-insensitively, and every level derived is one the vocabulary
	publishes and a point accepts

	Named accessors for the provenance fields - geocoder, database, confidence,
	accuracy, country, city and state - instead of leaving them to AUTOLOAD, so
	that pod-coverage sees them and a value the reader cannot trust is refused
	where it is set: confidence must be a number from 0 to 1, and accuracy must
	be one of address, street, postcode, locality, city, region or country, the
	vocabulary that Geo::Coder::Free::Provenance speaks
	They read and write the slot AUTOLOAD would, invalidating the same caches,
	so the two spellings are interchangeable and undef still clears a field
	The BUGS section now says which attributes are checked and which are not:
	new() still stores whatever it is handed, including the false values 0.16
	made readable, so a provenance field set through the constructor is not
	validated
	t/attr.t: a VALIDATION block asserts that an out-of-range confidence, an
	accuracy outside the vocabulary and a non-string city are refused by name,
	and that the valid values round-trip.  The empty string is no longer an
	accuracy, so the three assertions that used it as one now use a level.
	ACCURACY_LEVELS() hands out one list that is read-only (Readonly), not a
	copy, because the vocabulary is shared: the module takes the levels it
	validates against when it loads, and accuracy() refuses anything else
	there, so a level pushed into the list would be a level the module
	published and would not accept.  A caller that tries is refused rather
	than obeyed, and every module that reads the list - the name
	Geo::Coder::Free::Provenance re-exports included - is reading the same
	levels the validator enforces.  t/attr.t asserts that the attempt is
	refused with a read-only error and that the list is left as it was, and
	that every level in it is a level accuracy() accepts and reads back
