Zh GoogleMap component and plugin, support GoogleMaps v3 API Key

Hi.

Changes (2.9.20 – 2.9.21)
* added Google Maps API Key support, ie if you want to use your Maps API key for monitoring or billing for over quotas

Get Google Maps API Key, go to component options.
Enter into field: Google Maps API Key

PS:
I’ve added this new extension parameter. I separate this key from Earth key. They play with need, not need key. Googles docs is not quickly refreshed, for example, in English I’ve got one version of pages, in Russian – the other.
My old API Key, which I’ve got for Earth don’t want to work in Maps API, therefore I create addition parameter.
As for Google Earth – they write about there is no need key, but in integration of map and earth I can’t to do without key (as they show examples, it is only earth call, not mixed with maps). But about month ago there was change of Google Earth plugin. May be this process is not complete to not use Earth Key, or I have to uninstall and install again plugin.
Therefore:
– if you want to use maps, as you wish – get and enter Map Key field, or use without key
– if you want to use earth – get key and enter into Earth Key field. Now I check for Earth API key.

When I find out, that Earth works without key, I’ll correct extensions to use or not this key (if entered)
