BBirdMaps new feature.

John Ely suggested that it would be nice to have members who offer electrical
hookups or who are able/willing to offer assistance to other Bird owners
highlighted on the BBirdMaps in a color other than yellow.

I agreed that it was a good idea, although it was not particularly simple, since
mappoint does not have a method for changing highlight color. I ended up drawing
the circles myself, which means they aren't transparent, but that also makes
them bolder which is good.

If you want to be shown either way, those options now exist on the location
submission form.

Electric hookup will be shown with green highlighting, and Member Help will have
cyan highlighting. I did not try to include an option for both, so choose
whatever is most appropriate. In either case it would be good to provide some
detail in your note, and probably include a phone number.
