Open LocationMapViewer when some app wants to open online map like https://maps.google.com/...? #10

Description

@k3b
  • As an android user
  • I want that other android apps with a "show in Geographic Map" option show their content in the LocationMapViewer
  • So that i can bookmark the other apps geo location.

LocationMapViewer already implements this if the apps with a "show in Geographic Map" option uses intents with geo uri-s.

Unfortunately many apps use http-urls to online map services like google maps, openstreetmap, here.com, yandex.com

Example: If I click in WhatsApp on a "shared geographic location" WhatsApp opens a https://maps.google.com/.. link.
The proposed change allows LocationMapViewer to hook into the opend app choser as "show in LocationMapViewer"

This ticket is about also intercepting http(s)-Urls to online map services.

It is based on k3b-geoHelper#2: parse http(s) urls of maps.google.com, Openstreetmap and other mapproviders
