This PR addresses #2816 which requested allowing an optional third coordinate to teidata.point. I've tested the changes locally and it passes tests and I would welcome more eyes on this to check that all is well.

It would also be helpful to include a good example of 3d encoding as well in this PR and Jun Ogawa will hopefully be able to supply us with one.

The change @trishaoconnor has made seems perfectly reasonable, the regex looks correct, and it directly addresses the original request. Thus an approval.

But there are two huge caveats:

  1. Having thought about it a bit more, I do not think this is the right way to do this. I think we can provide users further, more useful constraint, on the theory that almost no one wants both 2D and 3D points on the same attribute.
  2. Even if this is the way Council decides to address this feature request, prose describing the datatype, prose discussing how to use it, and examples are all in order.

As for #​1 I will plan to submit a PR to demonstrate what I have in mind.
