Drop "KML" output format / driver (while keeping "LIBKML").

User JL reported problems that this converter handles CRS in a wrong way.

I quickly investigated this and saw that the KML driver "unasked" attaches the following data to the XML tag "Placemark" like this <Style><LineStyle><color>ff0000ff</color></LineStyle><PolyStyle><fill>0</fill></PolyStyle></Style> - while LIBKML does not.

In addition KML uses the top level XML tag folder while LIBKML issues document.

In turn, LIBKML attaches an id at XML tag Placemark.
