Investigate building more balanced shptrees

Description

The current shptree implementation ends up sticking relatively few features fairly deep in the tree, causing larger search paths than are ideal. At a minimum, for points, estimation for maxdepth should be investigated and improved.

The proportion of time spend searching in the tree is so small that this optimization probably isn't worth the time, unless someone can come up with a use case that exercises the problem effectively.
