Description

**What problem will this feature request solve?**
I need the ability to customize the marker size, color and mouse-over label

**Describe the solution you'd like.**
Currently in the map configuration there are four parameters: Map Type, Pin Type, Latitude and Longitude. I would like to add parameters here, if Pin Type = "Markers", to adjust and/or assign fields to attributes like the size of the marker, the type of marker (i.e. circle, triangle etc), the color of the marker as well as the marker mouse-over label.

**How does this feature request impact you?**
It may allow me to stop using Superset which would be great.

**Additional information**
Superset can currently do this.
