Allow selecting a location from a map outside of profile settings #425

There a few places where Inventaire takes in a geolocation input:

The first one presents you with a nice map to choose from. Great, even though instead of a large circle, the preview could show a pin similar to the ones that are shown elsewhere, as you cannot choose a precise location with the circle but its center is later displayed more precisely once made public.

The two others only enable auto geolocation from your browser, which might not be the location you actually want, especially not for groups, but also for the profile for privacy (the copy even says it: “No need to give your exact address, just pick a position near where you live or work”).

The suggestion here is to use the exact same modal for all location choosers. It would have the map, as well as the option to use the location sharing. However instead of a circle, it could instead show the same pin that appears on user and group maps.
