Result DataSet of coordinate transform has its CoordinateSystem changed

When you run one of the coordinate transform filters, CylindricalCoordinateTransform or SphericalCoordinateTransform, the transform coordiantes are placed as the first CoordinateSystem in the returned DataSet. This means that after running this filter, the data will be moved to this new coordinate space.

Previously, the result of these filters was just placed in a named Field of the output. This caused some confusion because the filter did not seem to have any effect (unless you knew to modify the output data). Not using the result as the coordinate system seems like a dubious use case (and not hard to work around), so this is much better behavior.
