GPS: add support for precision data #46

Sometimes you need to know how accurate a GPS lock is, so it would be nice to have additional (optional) info for the gps signal

e.g TTNMapper: The JSON object should contain the keys "latitude", "longitude" and "altitude" and one of "hdop", "accuracy" or "sats". When using the Cayenne LPP data format, the GPS coordinates will be decoded into a different JSON format, but this format is also supported. Cayenne LPP does not contain a GPS accuracy, and therefore this data will be considered as inferior and will carry less weight in calculation of coverage, and will be deleted first during data cleanup.

hdop: decimal values up to 50 (float) accuracy: ? this one i didnt get. in m? in %? sats: up to 12 sattelites (Global Positioning System Fix Data (GGA) NN ) can be in sight. so int should do
