Only create the EPS formatted images for the DVI/PS formatted documentation

The EPS files are not needed for other documentation formats,
some distributions are now disabling EPS support in ImageMagick
and the DVI/PS documentation formats are rarely used.

Also accept 2D/3D fix modes as indicator of a valid GPS fix

The libgps developers recommend to use the fix mode rather than the status,
which many GNSS receivers do not supply or have incompatible implementations.

gpsd API 9 has a different altitude reporting - the "altitude" field is
deprecated and undefined, one has to use "altMSL" instead.

Increase the maximum zoom level for the interface to 20

The maximum zoom level for downloads was already updated but
we forgot that it needed to be changed for the interface too.

Use --include-merged to get merge commits in the bzr log

The --include-merges appears to have been a typo and
it has probably never worked.

Fixes: bzr revno: 170

Switch default maximum zoom level from 18 to 20

Several map tile services now use zoom levels 19 and 20:

 * Google Maps goes up to 20
 * Google Satellite Maps goes up to 19
 * OpenStreetMap goes up to 19

This would be best fixed by per-source maximum zoom levels, but
that would require converting from GladeXML to GtkBuilder, which
requires more work, so do this until the conversion happens.

Convert dialog10 variables to static variables

This fixes a build failure with the GCC 10 linker,
which requires all variables to either be static
or unique within a single linking unit.
