Introduces new AddressDetails class which is responsible for address lookups. Saves always the complete result and then allows filtering throught the different access function. Remove special handling in Geocode() and use there the lookup throught PlaceLookup() as well.
Nominatim
Nominatim (from the Latin, 'by name') is a tool to search OpenStreetMap data by name and address (geocoding) and to generate synthetic addresses of OSM points (reverse geocoding). An instance with up-to-date data can be found at https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org. Nominatim is also used as one of the sources for the Search box on the OpenStreetMap home page.
