[CODE INCULDED] GoogleMap custom tag and additional goodies (includes improvements suggested in GM-2,4 and 5 in one bundle)

Description

Along with the enhancements in GM-2, and mods include:

Update to v2.x of the GMaps API (ie. http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2.x)
Packaging of to use a custom tag (Use Case: very useful when other, non-GoogleMap, custom types contain an array of googleLocations)
GoogleMap type contains two new properties:
mapType: Set the default map type 'hybrid/satellite/map'
bDisplayInfoWindow: Flag to display the information (bubble) window in Google Maps (Use Case: hide info pop-ups when using small - pixel - sized maps)
Google API key: No need for an additional GM key (apiKeyFarcryConjuror - as per GM-2) - the site's standard key works now (may be related to the update of the GM API)
Both Formtools use the cracking little skin:htmlHead tag to ensure that the googlemap API is only loaded once.

A quick update to (attempt to) keep this forked version of the plugin up-to-date with recent changes in the core GM codebase (added install folder).

Also added icons and additional metadata on the types to make use of FarCry's neat new ability to show summary screens for types.
