We should have an ST_Height and ST_Width for geometry similar to what we already have for raster which would return the bounding box height and width

Summary: ST_Height and ST_Width for geometryST_Height and ST_Width (or ST_XSize, ST_YSize, ST_ZSize) for geometry

We should decide on name evidently also proposed ST_XSize, ST_YSize, ST_ZSize admittedly that is clearer and has the niceness of not being a breaking change (e.g. ST_Width and ST_Height would overlap with raster thus possibly in some cases resulting in ambiguous if people don't cast their text based geometry representations.

Just stumbled upon lack of this function. I'd be tempted to use ST_Width/ST_Height as we already have that for raster, and that's what I've been typing w/out luck…
