Bug description:
  As of today, MapQuest has disabled their free map tile feed. This
  means the Maps app no longer displays anything except a warning
  pointing to

  http://devblog.mapquest.com/2016/06/15/modernization-of-mapquest-
  results-in-changes-to-open-tile-access/

  Screenshot attached.

  [Impact]
  GNOME Maps is included by default in Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 and 16.04. The app currently is useless.

  Triaged as "High" because it "prevents the application or any
  dependencies from functioning correctly at all".
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Importance

  This also breaks libchamplain (a library for embedding maps into your
  app). Once a fix is released, apps using libchamplain will likely need
  to be patched to use a different map provider.

  [Test Case]
  Install gnome-maps. Open the Maps app. Do you see maps?

  Note that maps are cached so you may not notice the feed has been
  disabled unless you try viewing a specific area at a close enough zoom
  that you have not viewed recently.

  [Regression Potential]
  No Stable Release Update is ready yet for this issue.
