Handle spatialite geometry columns better #276

Description

@russss

I'd like to see spatialite geometry columns rendered more sensibly - at the moment they come through as well-known-binary unless you use custom SQL, and WKB isn't of much use to anyone on the web.

In HTML: they should be shown either as simple lat/long (if it's just a point, for example), or as a sensible placeholder if they're more complex geometries.

In JSON: they should be GeoJSON geometries, (which means they can be automatically fed into a leaflet map with no further messing around).

In CSV: they should be WKT.

I briefly wondered if this should go into a plugin, but I suspect it needs hooking in at a deeper level than the plugin architecture will support any time soon.
