getArea() support for LinearRing?

Description

getArea() is not implemented for LinearRing geometry objects.

I think from a very brief look at the code it could be implemented by something along the lines of: 

double
LinearRing::getArea() const
{
        const CoordinateSequence *h = getCoordinatesRO();
        return fabs(algorithm::CGAlgorithms::signedArea(h));
}

I'd imagine Polygon::getArea() should also be updated to call LinearRing::getArea() :)
