[chirp_devel] [PATCH] Improve latitude/longitude entry

The attached patch adds support for a wider variety of latitude/longitude input formats in the RFinder search dialog.

What should work:

dd mm.m N/S/E/W dd mm ss.s N/S/E/W

with any separator between the fields, and with or without a separator between the final group of digits and the direction.

The parsing code is currently extremely permissive. It doesn't complain about seconds or minutes values greater than 60; it just adds them in (so 45 90 N produces the same result as 46 30 N). Should it care? I could see that decision going either way.
