Simplify geometry type constraint

Description

According to Andrew Gierth we're putting a superfluous condition in our geometry type constraint:

http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/87bnk7z9h6.fsf@news-spur.riddles.org.uk

To be removed (doesn't really need to be backported)

BTW, we do not add the superfluous condition in the dimension or srid constraints…

NOTE: removing the "or IS NULL" condition works around a limitation of PostgreSQL that makes it unable to use table constraint to skip scan of tables with an upfront check (subject of the linked thread)
