[Feature Request] Add automatic location support for weather wiget

Sometimes I may travel or not be local to my homeserver. I would like the weather widget to function for my current location in these situations.
I imagine this could look something like an "automatic location" config parameter that makes use of getCurrentPosition() to ask the user for their location before making a query for the weather.
