add pandas/geopandas to qgis base python librairies

[thomas-szczurek]

Feature description

It would be practical for a qgis installation to include the shapely/pyogrio/pandas/geopandas/resterio python libraries, even if qgis doesn't use them directly.

Use cases :

• using them in qgis python interpreter without the need of a virtual env to keep the compatibility between qgis and the librairies when you can't manage your qgis installation yourself (eg : at work)
• Enable the development of plugins using them without forcing the end-user to download them.
• Enable the development of plugins using these libraries within an organization without forcing the IT department to repackage qgis (which often results in a no).

All of these are available on OSGeo4W Installer through "Advanced Install". Why don't you tell your IT team to include all additional tools you need inside company?

Which platform? How did you install? Usually this already is included/available.

Mainly for Windows, in case you are not the master of your installation. To quote my IT department, "it's a proprietary msi, we can't change it". And they can't be the only ones like that. It's not for "me at home" where I can put my qgis mamba

the msis include shapely, pyogrio, pandas and geopandas
