ArchGDAL now has a vector dataset writer

[visr]

Looks like the GeoDataFrames.write function can probably be simplified a lot now that yeesian/ArchGDAL.jl#315 is merged. (Still needs to be tagged)

Actually, I don't think so. You would still have to assemble the dataset in memory manually from the table. Also, the writer is still lacking support for spatial refs and multiple geometries per layer I think. But using it could in principle provide speed benefits for large datasets, when the chunked write option is enabled via use_gdal_copy=false.
