regression: default "save as" value for ESPR Shapefile prevents creation of .shp

Affected QGIS version: master
Redmine category:unknown

Currently under master, the save as dialog sets the SHPT layer option to NULL for the ESPR Shapefile driver. This translates into the creation of a .dbf-only dataset. In previous versions of QGIS, I'm pretty sure the SHPT option was not set, as I have many times in the past saved KML files as shapefiles without having to modify layer options.

While it might be useful to expose the SHPT option, having "dbf-ony" option set by default is not good (understatement of the week :) ).

I have no idea when this regressed.

One way to fix this is to remove the SHPT option altogether, since QGIS itself now allows to modify the geometry type.
