Waypoints and Garmin gpx sym support

[0709wiwiwi]

Waypoints: Free individual locations as are clearly definied in the gpx standard as being gpx (wpt) waypoints !

The use of Garmin (png) icons triggered by the gpx wpt sym are widespread. By the wpt gpx sym many apps already do show the associated Garmin or compatible icons. Optimally the Cruiser app should offer this in the same way. Even with png icons, the presentation is very neat.

A straightforward simple way via sym usage is desirable. Provided less resistance to png icons something like this is definitely possible.

The popular range of Garmin icons (png) is supported by default in apps like Locus map.

Support for an unlimited number of icons is not possible now. However, the sender can easily transfer the matching icon images associated with the gpx wpt sym into a compressed gpz file. See: #127

If you can't join them, beat them!
As I was quite regimented in my Waypoint naming early on, I took advantage of that to produce my own solution:

It's hard-coded to specific Cruiser icons+colours, but works just fine. Here's an early example from a recent thread:

I have plans to make it more user-friendly so that it's of use to others (if you don't mind a Windoze app), but this is just how I got around a map of orange stars in the short-term 😆
