[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Search by latitude & longitude succeeds inconsistently (#2366)

[Tom Hughes]

The actual code is at https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/blob/master/app/controllers/geocoder_controller.rb#L293 and as you can see the patterns we recognise are already pretty... complicated...

I think the only two of your examples which don't work are the first one, because we don't allow a degree symbol when using decimal degrees, and the last one because we don't allow use of +/- when using sexagesimal notation - we expect N/S/E/W instead.
