Use API to update case numbers #1

At the moment case numbers are downloaded by hand from Risklayer, see import_risklayer.py, and from RKI, see create_RKI_points.py, but there are APIs available, e.g. German COVID-19 JSON API

We should find a solution to automatically integrate the data from the API with the geojson object in javascript

I think there are multiple projects with #wirvsvirus which are working on APIs, also something official from RKI might be coming. Also looking at gathering landkreis-based time series data for modelling

Landkreise: https://npgeo-corona-npgeo-de.hub.arcgis.com/datasets/917fc37a709542548cc3be077a786c17_0

The geojson could be fetched via their api. The geojson data also includes the cases in the Bundesländers and Landkreise.
