Geolocations for Project Updates

[adriancollier]

Issue to start collecting and displaying the Gelocations for new project updates.

Started to cover some of the requirements here:
akvo/akvo-rsr-up#22
akvo/akvo-rsr#646

Functional spec on its way.

@stellanl @zzgvh @KasperBrandt One question to be answered:

Number 3 here:
https://github.com/akvo/akvo-product-design/blob/master/RSR/Features/40-Update-Locations/FunctionalDesign/40-Update-Locations.md#questions
Should the options be on the app level or account level when adding updates?

I was wondering what your thoughts are?

If we add it at the account level then we could utilise this for the Web and Up forms.
But I think this should be "settable" from either - so is it possible to have a user setting that can be modified either from http://rsr.akvo.org/myakvo/ or from the RSR Up settings and have them synchronised?

Ideas on the simple solution welcome!

Synchronising anything between app and server has the same complications
as updates. There is always a chance that the first of two operations
will happen and the second not.
Since this is not so critical, I suppose one way to have few troublesome
states is to include the settings first in every update upload. If the
upload succeeds, then the settings did, too.
But if 2 apps on the same account keep changing the settings, things
could easily get very confused.

This has been implemented.
