Support viewing of large data sets in Keppler.gl GeoView

[koettert]

If a user wants to open a larger data set it takes a long time until the view is properly loaded without much (no) progress indication. See also this forum post.
We should investigate if it would be faster to first write a file (e.g. GeoJSON) to the local disc and then having the view load the data from the file rather than packing the data into the html file itself.

@koettert I think it's not supported via Kepler.gl python API. The way to make it work is probably to use Python to generate a Geojson file etc. somewhere and use kepler.gl.js to load it through ajax.

https://docs.kepler.gl/docs/user-guides/b-kepler-gl-workflow/a-add-data-to-the-map seems to support more data if you load it from URL

@koettert try out with Kepler web front end import data from URL: https://kepler.gl/demo

Kepler now also support GeoArrow on master: keplergl/kepler.gl#2385 which might be a better way to transfer data to Kepler.
