ImageFormatPlugin: Decide on how to handle planar map representation #1398

Description

@gkjohnson

Right now there are two possible shapes for tiled image formats to be displayed as: "planar" and "ellipsoid". Currently "planar" just maps to [0, 1] (I think) and is treated just as a basic plane with no geospatial mapping. Some users expect it to be be geospatially address-able, though (see #1347). We may need to enable mapping the data to a dedicated CRS (web mercator, WGS84 equirect, etc) in order to support this. Something like a "map" option. Or perhaps we can rely on #1156 entirely, thought it may be slower (this should be the first step).
