Add corner points for blockfaces on the printable context map for individual mappers #904

The corner points on the printable map can be the same symbology as the corner points that show in the Treecorder when choosing a starting point. Some blocks are curved and the corner point is meant to help the mapper know where to start mapping.

@dboyer, do you think we also want corner points on the event map, since it shows the group's block edges which are near the event?

@RickMohr I'm torn on this. While it could be useful, it could also be overwhelming since a group's census zone may be quite large and showing corner points for every block edge near the event could result in a lot of points on the map. I'm inclined to not display them for events but will check with Parks.

Parks confirmed that corner points should only be displayed on the maps for individual reservations.
