Description

`maximumLevel` defaults to `18`, which cuts off high-resolution imagery. We can
- implement `GetCapabilities` (perhaps covered in #2362?), or
- just let requests for tiles that don't exist fail, I imagine.

Research direction

Start with the WebMapTileServiceImageryProvider entry point and read issue #2362 for the proposed GetCapabilities context. Determine whether the accepted scope is capability discovery or allowing missing tiles to fail, then verify that maximumLevel no longer cuts off supported high-resolution imagery.
