// Turning a place name into coordinates.
//
// The weather card needs latitude and longitude, but nobody knows their own
// coordinates, and a settings page that demands them is a settings page nobody
// changes. Open-Meteo publishes a geocoding endpoint that needs no API key and
// no account, which is the same reason the forecast itself uses them.
//
// Fetched with curl rather than XMLHttpRequest for the same reason as
// services/Weather.qml: curl is guaranteed present, and a search that fails
// must leave the page usable rather than producing an error popup.
//
// Only the query is sent. The stored location label never leaves the machine.
