CARTO driver: cartodbfy even if SRID not 4326

[jchmbrln]

The CARTO driver for ogr2ogr, which I'm finding very useful, will only "cartodbfy" a newly created table if the geometry's SRID is 4326. CARTO, however, will automatically transform any geometry that's not 4326 during the cartodbification, so I don't think this behavior is entirely necessary. Right now you have to manually cartodbfy non-4326 geometry after uploading it via ogr2ogr.

This change would be particularly nice when combined with #6735. CARTO transforms the "the_geom" column in place if it exists, so one might be surprised to find non-4326 geometry unintentionally transformed to 4326. If, however, you can put your geometry in a different column, CARTO will create and populate "the_geom" as 4326, leaving your original column intact.

See ​https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/6735#comment:1 . You can always use ogr2ogr -t_srs EPSG:4326 to force reprojection and thus enabling cartodbfy'cation. At least you know what is happening by being forced to do so
