o Minor features (geoip data):
- Update the geoip files to match the IPFire Location Database,
as retrieved on 2021/03/12.
- We have switched geoip data sources. Previously we shipped
IP-to-country mappings from Maxmind's GeoLite2, but in 2019 they
changed their licensing term, so we were unable to update them after
that point. We now ship geoip files based on the IPFire Location
Database instead. (See https://location.ipfire.org/ for more
information). This release updates our geoip files to match the
IPFire Location Database as retrieved on 2021/03/12. Closes
ticket 32978.
