Resolved Defects

QB-17223	Improved placement of city labels in webmap	An issue in the label priority comparison was fixed, which should lead to better prioritization of city labels.

GEO-1940	Can't use numeric field for route operation costs	Previously the operation would fail with an error message about the column being the wrong type.
GEO-1942	Previewing a CSV with WKT geometries would not pick up the geometry type	It would only load the CSV header and not pick up the geometry type from the first row.
GEO-1944	GeoAnalytics logs not showing up in the main log	Fixed an issue that caused GeoAnalytics log messages to be silently discarded.
