[Bug 1386709] [NEW] Queries to remote scopes don't include location data (even if the scope needs it)

 

Public bug reported:

The query to weatherchannel is not including lat/long, even if the
remote-scopes listing have the "needs_location_data" in true:
https://pastebin.canonical.com/119512/

The server try to guess user location using geo-ip, but it's not always
as accurate as we need for a user service (it depends heavily on your IP
being representative of where you really are, which may not be the case
for hotel proxys, weird ISPs, etc).

Plase, send user's latitude and longitude for the remote scopes that
need this information.

Thanks!
