b42bae2ce8 Geo taxonomy: download the taxonomy data from geonames.org
There are a number of web servies we could use. All have their drawbacks.
This one is free with free data. It's daily limits are reasonably high.
For many coordinates I tested the results were good, for others at least
not terrible.

We can always consider supporting multiple such services. But for now this
seems like a reasonable choice.

627de38c01 Get the location information in a separate thread
This makes Subsurface usable faster for those without a good internet
connection when they are opening an older data file.

While parsing, we are only feeding an vector of locations, after the
parsing is done, we traverse the vector searching for the information on
the web.

I need to also add a way to stop if there`s no internet connection - but
this will be another patch.

Also, fixed two small memory leaks from the old imp.
