move to mapsforge maps

[GoogleCodeExporter]

After some deep prototyping I will move the mapping engine to the mapsforge 
project. It is amazing because it works also with vector data, which means we 
have all levels of detail already plus it is simple to have the maps of a 
country in one single file. Osmdroid tiles were simply giving too many problems 
since a while now.

This has lead to a mapsforge fork as per version 0.3.0, which is quite sad. 
Fact is that mapsforge removed TileSources to focus on better vector data. For 
now we will stick on this version, pulling in fixes (done so already).

Future will show which way to go. Changing the mapping engine has not been that 
impossible, so this is acceptable.
