> Replace the term "ordinate" by "coordinate" for conformance with ISO 19111 
> terminology. The ISO standard said:
> {quote}
> In this document, a coordinate is one of _n_ scalar values that define the 
> position of a single point. In other contexts, the term _ordinate_ is used 
> for a single value and _coordinate_ for multiple ordinates. Such usage is not 
> part of this document.
> {quote}
> SIS was using _ordinate_, but OGC/ISO standards consistently use _coordinate_ 
> instead. We should align on international standard usage.
> This change implies the following incompatible changes:
> * In {{org.apache.sis.geometry.DirectPosition1D}}, public field {{ordinate}} 
> is renamed {{coordinate}}.
> * Serialization UUID of {{DirectPosition1D}} and {{ArrayEnvelope}} changed.
