Layers

As briefly described in #map-widget, the children property takes a list of Widgets, which will be stacked on top of each other (last on top). These can be any Widget, such as a FutureBuilder or StreamBuilder, but are usually Layers which are provided by this library or plugins.

There is also the nonRotatedChildren property, which work similarly as their 'rotatable' counterpart, but - as the name suggests - do not get rotated as the map gets rotated. For example, the AttributionWidget should be used inside nonRotatedChildren instead of children, as it needs to remain vertical and therefore readable.

As a minimum, all maps should have a Tile Layer, as this is what actually displays any map. Other layers are available, such as markers/waypoints and lines.
