Add ability to connect directly to GPSD instance over a network

[MattCW1701]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I use GPSD on a RaspberryPi to serve multiple positioning needs when storm chasing. To use Supercell-WX with it would require using a special com port bridge application I wrote that serves NMEA sentences on a COM port after connecting to a GPSD instance.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like the ability to select GPS Plugin: GPSD and enter into the source field a network address (hostname or IP) which then connects to and begins receiving and parsing location information from GPSD.

Describe alternatives you've considered
As stated above, I wrote a program that serves as a bridge between applications that need to connect to a COM port. The program connects to GPSD, then sends NMEA sentences out on one end of a virtual COM Port pair. In order to use Supercell-WX along with my other applications, I would have to have two instances of my program running.

Thanks for the request! Currently, I don't support connecting to GPSD out of the box, but you shouldn't necessarily need a COM port bridge either.

See the following:
https://supercell-wx.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user-guide/settings.html#gps-plugin
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/position-plugin-nmea.html#parameters
https://gpsd.gitlab.io/gpsd/gpspipe.html#_examples

You can use gpspipe and socat to serve NMEA sentences from GPSD, and then use socket://localhost:12345 (or the alternate address you configured) instead of the COM port as the GPS source.

I do want to keep this issue open, in order to support GPSD natively.
