Drop Python 3.6 and improve ipyleaflet tile layer
Bye-bye, Python 3.6! 👋🏻
This release introduces an override to ipyleaflet.TileLayer
that constrains the region of requested tiles, per jupyter-widgets/ipyleaflet#888. This significantly reduces the load on the tile server when viewing tiles in an ipyleaflet.Map
This change required dropping Python 3.6 and was good timing since Python 3.6's Security Support ended Dec 23, 2021 (4 days ago) (ref https://endoflife.date/python). Since conda-forge
hasn't been building on Python 3.6 for some time, I'm hoping there is minimal impact here
