[Shotwell] current shotwell and map widget status

[Jens Georg <mail jensge org>]

Hi,

Sorry, I forgot about the branch, I will update it for the current 
master.

The plan is to merge it, but I need to solve two things:
 - Fix the database format to be less painful and not just bolt on the 
geodata
   to the current table.

   This should allow for nicer things like reverse geolocation etc.

 => This is planned for this unstable cycle

 - Figure out where to get the map tiles from. I am trying to talk to 
GNOME ppl
   for a policy on piggy-backing on their tile server account for 
GNOME(-ish)
   software that isn't GNOME maps, but I should probably ask OSM 
directly as
   well.
