Missing VAT (in dbf or in gpkg) when exporting without a defined geometry-map-relation #973

Description

@jipclaassens

When exporting an attribute called pand_geometry, it is not automatically recognised as a map-attribute by geodms. And thus the geometry-map-relation is missing. In that case, no .dbf file will be exported (and no attribute table in a gpkg).

This is no problem when opening the shp/gpkg in QGIS; however, ArcGIS Pro does not open it.

A workaround is to explicitly add DialogData = "pand_geometry", DialogType = "map", and then export another attribute in the same unit, not the' pand_geometry'.

However, a more user-friendly option would be to add an option to the export dialogue to include the VAT with a note indicating that it is required for ArcGIS Pro.

@basvanbemmel, this might fix your issues.
