Support for OpenHistoricalMap and map time slider

This release adds support for OpenHistoricalMap as a layer in Gramps Web!

OpenHistoricalMap is an open geographical database built on OpenStreetMap's technology, but adding a time dimension and thus mapping historical places throughout history.

With a new time slider at the bottom of the map view, the high-resolution vector map can be adjusted to a given year. The time slider also optionally filters all places, shown as pins on the map, depending on whether an event took place in that location around the selected year. The place filter is also available on the normal OpenStreetMap layer.

You can find the OpenHistoricalMap layer by opening the layer switcher in the bottom left of the map view.

Thanks to @1ec5 from the OpenHistoricalMap community for the idea & contribution!
