This PR reworks the liblwgeom internals of ST_ClusterWithin and ST_ClusterIntersecting to make them a bit simpler and more similar, then replaces ST_ClusterWithin with DBSCAN, of which ST_ClusterWithin is a special case.
I haven't done much testing on this yet, although it passes the existing test suite and produces results equivalent to the R 'dbscan' package in the cases I've tried.
This also extends (again) the aggregation machinery in
lwgeom_accum.c
, since we now need to pass two constant arguments to the finalizer function instead of just one. If we decide to go the windowing route for 2.3, this stuff should be backed out.
