v2.1.1

For the reasons described in #50 (comment), the Google-based geolocation is now removed from Airqmon. The geolocation is now based on the ip-api.com service that allows 45 requests per minute from a single IP address before throttling requests. The principal is the same as the Electron default one - location is obtained based on the public IP address. Neither the high-accuracy, custom BSSID-based geolocation nor the Electron default geolocation is used. The downside is that the accuracy is worse because it could show a different part of town or even a different city.

Main changes:

• Geolocation is now based on the ip-api.com
