Force UTM Zone to gracefully handle UTM boundaries

[valschmidt]

This pull requests implements a new version of the fromLatLong() method that allows one to optionally specify the UTM zone explicitly. This functionality allows one to establish a single UTM zone for operations and prevents the need to change an entire reference frame on the fly as the robot passes across zone boundaries.

Seems like a good idea. Are there any unit tests for the new feature?

[valschmidt]

There is not. Are there unit tests for the rest of the geodesy package that they could be based on? Oh, BTW, I have noticed that I have a typo in this pull request. (I’m not sure how I did that.)

…

-Val UPDATE: This is fixed.
