Support direct access to the location panel

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

What URL does the indicator attempt to open?

When "location settings" is clicked in the indicator, the current action is to call url_dispatch_send() with a uri of "settings:///system/security-privacy".

What uri should the indicator be calling to invoke the Locations subpage of the security-privacy plugin?

From mpt's comments in [1] the URL should be “settings:///location”.

jgdx, I already had a few indicator-location branches siloed in <https://requests.ci-train.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/949> and so I've stacked <https://code.launchpad.net/~charlesk/indicator-location/lp-1533835-use-correct-url-for-system-settings> on top of that if you want to test with it and/or use that silo for your systems-settings branch as well.
