Geospatial maps for item pages, search, browse

• Requires Discovery configuration to support geospatial search DSpace#9918

Description

This pull request is introduced as part of a wider contribution (GND authority and external data) but is a standalone feature which has a wide application, so is opened as a separate PR.

It allows maps to be drawn on item pages, a new geo-based search results view mode, and a 'browse by geolocation' browse map.

Full usage and technical documentation of this new feature is at https://github.com/kshepherd/dspace-geospatial-maps-doc/blob/main/README.md

Instructions for Reviewers

List of changes in this PR:

• New base and item field components (example usage commented out in untyped item and publication component templates) for drawing maps from metadata values or other input
• New configuration properties to support this feature
• A few new i18n keys
• Marker assets for leaflet maps

To prepare test data, populate some item metadata with dcterms.spatial WKT point values (as per documentation).

To test item page maps, try out the item page field components that are commented out in untyped-item and publication templates. This can be tested without the backend PR.

To test the search results map, enable it in angular config and look for a new 'map' view mode beside the list and grid view mode icons. This can be tested without the backend PR, though I recommend applying it and reindexing so you can try out the "has geospatial metadata" sidebar facet.

To test the browse-by map, make sure to apply the backend PR (note- this requires the solr search core to be recreated and reindexed due to a new schema field, if you want to use the "has geospatial metadata" filter) and make sure you have the documented search configuration, filters and facets applied, then do a full-reindex and enable the browse map in angular config. It should appear in the browse menu and clicking markers should open a new search filtered by that point.

Unit tests are written for all new components.
