GetFeatureInfo on a GROUP of layers should skip non queryable layers instead of producing exception

[dmorissette]

At the moment, if we do a GetFeatureInfo? on a GROUP of layers in which at least one of the layers is not queryable, we get the following exception:

msWMSFeatureInfo(): WMS server error. Requested layer(s) are not queryable.

It would help if we could just skip the non-queryable layers that are part of a group. This would allow things like scale-dependent layers that are grouped together for presentation to have a single queryable layer for the whole group. I don't think the WMS specification forbids that, does it?

Patch against trunk that implements this

Assefa, does the attached patch seem okay to you? Do you think this change of behavior would break anything?

Daniel, I do not see any issue with this. The only thing I can see is if none of the layers in the group are queryable and we end up with numlayers_found == 0, the error message returned should be checked to reflect this.
