Add Salah and Sun times to the SignalK graph

# signalk-makkah-plugin
Add distance and direction to Makkah, Salah (prayer) times and Sun times (sunrise, sunset, civic twilight start/end) to the SignalK graph.  
Calculations use the UTC time from path `navigation.datetime` and the time zone offset from path `environment.time.timezoneOffset`.  
The latter is supported by e.g. the `@yachteye/signalk-timezone-plugin`.

Install with:

`npm install signalk-makkah-plugin`

After installation, you enable & configure the plugin via the plugins page in the SignalK admin UI.

## Build
`npm run build`

## Features
- Add the Salah times to the SignalK graph at (default) path `resources.astronomical.salahTimes`.
- Add distance and direction to Makkah at path `navigation.distanceToMakkah` and `navigation.bearingToMakkah`.
- Add the Sun times to the SignalK graph at path `resources.astronomical.sunTimes`.
- Based on http://praytimes.org/ .
- Optionally use a custom NMEA0183 GGA parser that is less restrictive than the default SignalK parser.
