GEOIP_SETTINGS is removed from the global scope as this prevents
modifications to the settings using @override_settings in tests.
Additional improvements now that we have stable test databases include:
- Made testing more comprehensive and improved coverage
- Patched socket.gethostbyname() for whole test case
- Added testing of non-free GeoIP2 databases

- Instantiation of GDALRaster instances from dict or json data.
- Retrieve and write pixel values in GDALBand objects.
- Support for the GDALFlushCache in gdal C prototypes
- Added private flush method to GDALRaster to make sure all
data is written to files when file-based rasters are changed.
- Replaced ``ptr`` with ``_ptr`` for internal ptr variable
