ST_Equals documentation does not describe current behavior
The docs for ST_Equals state that:
This function will return false if either geometry is invalid even if they are binary equal.
However, this behavior was broken with #3223 (released in 2.2). Either the work done under that ticket should be reverted, or the documentation should be updated with the new behavior.

I think behavior on invalid geometries is generally undefined, so would fix the documentation accordingly. But I'll leave the final word to Regina the docs queen
