[Users] WFSCapabilitiesReader - default layer strategies

[Matt Priour]

+1 on the option to use the short strategy name string with an options object.
We could implement this immediately in GeoExt when creating layers from the capabilities store and the layerOptions, if there is not equal support for that syntax directly in OL.

I've also come across this issue and ended up solving it by listening to 'add' event on the layer store and then modifying options on the layers accordingly. I would much prefer the ability to set the defaults in the layerOptions rather than having to modify them after creation.

That was my suggestion. And I think {"BBOX"} and {"BBOX": {ratio: 1}}
could also be supported.
