Add Geocoding API to setup instructions

Thanks for this great component!

Took me a few minutes to figure out why I couldn't get it to authorize my requests. I eentually figured out that I need to enable the Geocoding API where as the readme only mentions Maps and Places

Perhaps adding that would help other new users?

I was just about to raise an issue because my config was not working when I saw your comment @shaun-adam . Many thanks, my config is now working. Yes, better instructions on the Google API side would smooth the way for the use of an otherwise excellent component!
