Summary description:  Spherical Mercator coordinate systems and Web Mercator tile integration

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 Initial public release for a package which extends TikZ with tools to
 create map graphics. The provided coordinate system relies on the
 Web Mercator projection used on the Web by OpenStreetMap and others.
 The package supports the seamless integration of graphics from
 public map tile servers by a Python script. Also, common map elements
 like markers, geodetic networks, bar scales, routes, orthodrome pieces,
 and more are part of the package.
