Description
### Problem
Currently when opening
When opening :geo links with address search like the following
- `geo:0,0?q=Dapperstraat%2076%20Amsterdam`
- `geo:0,0?q=1600+Pennsylvania+Ave+NW,+Washington,+DC+20500`
We get:
> Maps wasn't able to parse “geo:0,0?q=Dapperstraat%2076%20Amsterdam”. Please report this using the Feedback app.
### Proposal
Building on https://github.com/elementary/maps/issues/108 it would be great if Maps could also handle geo urls with adres search (`q`).
