[Suggestion] add a feature to log one's own track

Write a locale GPX track file.

Not yet sure if recording your own track is useful to have inside the app as you can just fire up your own gpx recorder - recording the whole cm on the other hand is something I would find interesting and maybe implement. Not yet sure about a good UX for this though.

I would have to install, and to start, a second app. I don't have a "gpx recorder" installed - why not let criticalmaps write a simple gpx log file with timestamp as filename everytime criticalmaps is started?

yyyymmdd-hhmmss.gpx

separation of concerns

I do not want to install two apps - I want to join a Critical Mass - what I do regularly - and track my route using a single app.

I think this could be a feature in the future and if someone implements it in a sensible way I'd have no problem with getting it merged. For me personally this has low priority for the reasons ligi brought up.

@cbalster What's about this feature request, can you help here?

Maybe at some point - but my time is rather limited. This might have some synergy with the sternfahrt overlays in regard to parsing/writing gpx data. So maybe after that.
