PhotoPrism

When possible, location estimates now include a latitude and longitude. Photos load faster when you open them in Places, and the viewer sorts them by distance. Time zone handling has been completely reworked, in particular for UTC. The Docker base image has been upgraded to Ubuntu 21.10, which ships with Darktable 3.6 among other updated dependencies.
