Start Google Maps using intent of ACTION_VIEW

To start Android geo viewer, Google Maps, we can start activity with intent "android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW", with Uri of "geo:latitude,longitude".

Modify last post "Get location of Cell ID, from opencellid.org using HttpGet()", start Google Maps with the location returned from OpenCellID.
