Description

Proposal: Port RNW LocationObserverModule to react-native-community/geoLocation

Summary

With the move to the 0.60 branch, navigator.geoLocation is no longer supported by react-native. It has been moved to react-native-community/geoLocation and deprecated from react-native. However, react-native-community/geoLocation doesn't support windows...yet. Our react-native-windows LocationObserver module is now 'orphaned'.

Motivation

In our UWP calendar app, the weather feature depended on navigator.geoLocation from react-native-windows. The weather feature is now broken.

Open Questions

In the interim, we might consider moving this support to react-native-windows-extended.
