[Bug 1229768] [NEW] weather applet doesn't include Jerusalem location

/usr/share/libgweather/Locations.xml doesn't contain an entry for
Jerusalem, yet there are weather stations in Jerusalem and all
commercial weather websites I know of provide weather updates for
Jerusalem/Israel.

Here the Locations.xml entry for Israel:

<country><name>Israel</name><iso-code>IL</iso-code><fips-code>IS</fips-

None of the other locations in Israel is near Jerusalem, nor does any of
them have the same climate. It seems very odd to see the capital of
Israel missing in gweather - all other countries I checked have an entry
for their capital.
