Comment:
Because `gtype` is really an `OGRGeomType` instance, equality testing with
strings works (e.g., `OGRGeomType('POINT') == 'Point'`). Regardless, for
other reasons it was changed to a string comparison in r11742 when 3D
support was added; I also clarified that exception to differentiate
between the model field type and what was found on the layer, similar to
what you put in the summary here.
While I agree there was a problem with the error message, the
`LayerMapping` utility has always been able to import `LineString`
geometries, it's done in the test suite in multiple places.
