Remarks
Note that internally, a Crs object does not contain any axis names (although the components of a Point object are called X, Y and Z). This static method just gives the authoritative axis abbreviations (usually: what EPSG says).
The supported authorities are "EPSG", "ESRI", "IGNF", "CRS" and "OGC". Carmenta methods will regard authority strings as case insensitive.
