Remove Cesium submodule
The cesium module is old and doesn't work anymore. I think it best to remove it as it is useless for now
I think it does work, just needs documentation (users need their own cesium keys)
I'd rather try and fix the issues.
This is a significant effort that nobody want to do for years and in the same time people keep pulling this and waste bandwidth and storage with this.
This is also showing down a little CI
I did have a go a few months ago in trying to update this module.
Due to the Cesium API having changed significantly over the past 3 years (everything the current module uses has been deprecated - most importantly the terrain and tile data formats), this web-facing parts of the module would need to be written almost from the ground-up to work again. It's nowhere near a simple patch or two.
I agree with @khancyr in that I don't see a reason for keeping this module if there's no clear path or volunteer to get it working again.
