[Bug 233095] www/firefox geolocation no longer working

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=233095

--- Comment #7 from J.R. Oldroyd <fbsd@opal.com> ---
I did some debugging of this.

There appear to be two problems.

1. The FreeBSD wifi scan code uses the isr_rssi value directly.  This results
in incorrect values.  It needs to adjust for the isr_noise noise level.  I am
attaching a patch to correct this.

2. Secondly, I cannot get it to work directly with the default Google
geolocation URL [1].  However, if I change the URL (in about:config
geo.provider.network.url) to a proxy script on my own server, then call that
same Google geolocation URL from that script it works just fine (with the
patch).  To debug this, I want to enable logging (I've tried using [2] and also
using about:logger) to see what's going on, but the log files are created but
remain empty.  Anyone have suggestions for how to get the log to show?
