new layers from DoEE

Some are useful in RaPP Map, could be useful in NAt Map as well. Particularly: NRM Natural_Resource_Management_Regions (MapServer) National_Landcare_Program_Management_Unit (MapServer) (be careful about large poly in the ocean, freezes Terria when doing feature info) A few more probably on conservation areas, wetlands and so on

@rowanwins any thoughts on if we can stop a MapServer from sending the geom, as the "freeze" is Terria trying to render a 4.5mb gzipped chunk of GeoJSON?

Here's the layer with very large polygon, click anywhere in the ocean inside the Australian EEZ (I think it is): https://map.geo-rapp.org/#share=s-3oUbH6FLeAqSheRjxCOwoEHvK1S

There is a parameter for not sending the geom (eg returnGeometry = false), however that would mean we'd not be able to show the highlight region.

Another alternative is there is a parameter for simplifying the geometry (eg maxAllowableOffset =2) and also limiting the precision of coords sent back (eg geometryPrecision=6). It might be worth trialling these first and seeing if they can generate helpful results before culling the geometries completely.
