Description
This PR is a nearly complete rewrite of the webgpsmap plugin frontend to improve responsible design on mobile devices and usability and performance even with hundreds of thousands of markers on the map.
In detail, the following changes have been made to webgpsmap:
Motivation and Context
The map from the webgpsmap plugin was outdated and the last update was years ago.
The JavaScript libraries used were several versions behind.
The usability on mobile was not optimal (for example, the lack of definition of the viewport caused small texts). Various graphic errors were evident even to the naked eye (texts not centered vertically, the filter bar overlapped the map, ...).
Below are the screenshots of how the old map looked and how the new one looks. The graphical differences may not be so obvious in these screenshots, but behind the scenes it changes a lot.

New:
How Has This Been Tested?
I have been testing the code for this PR for two weeks in my pwnagotchi instance.
I also measured the performance (empirically) of the new code compared to the old one:
console.time('A');
andconsole.timeEnd('A');
statements at the start and the end of thedrawPositions()
functiondrawPositions()
functionHere are the times I measured:
