Draft while a WIP.
Closes #1922 and relates to #1678.
Replaces the existing MaxMind database which is outdated and not correctly attributed with ones that are built automatically and are available under the public domain while also generally expanding the functionality of it.
Database choice
There's quite a few different variants of databases available we can use (possibly another in the near future). The one I have chosen gives us both Country and ASN data, which means we can both display the country associated with an IP address as well as what organization that IP address is associated with.
The MaxMind database only included country data, so we technically have more info available to us with this choice, although I would assume that data is otherwise a bit less accurate.
