World map of collectors #20

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A world map of collectors would be a nice and interesting new feature for CCI.

Describe the solution you'd like All collectors who gave their home town in the description are displayed as a green spot on the world map. By moving the mouse over the spot, one or more collectors appear in a list.

Describe alternatives you've considered None.

Additional context This would be really nice to find collectors in the immediate vicinity - surely some of them you didn't know of. Furthermore if you are travelling abroad, you quickly find collectors near to your place of vacation. original idea by mandosocca

Are we risking some GDPR and/or privacy issues? I would say that collectors have to explicitly choose to be on the map to play it safe and make it only available for logged in users.

Using some kind of tool to store the geocodes after they picked their hometown from a map would make it most robust.

A google map with "anyone with the link can edit" permissions but the link kept for logged in users could be a simple temporary(?) solution.
