Patch for D8 port

Hi guys,
I'm in the process of producing patches to port to D8 the following modules:

geoPHP (attached)
Geofield (in progress)
Leaflet + Leaflet Views (currently with maintainers for review)
Leaflet More Maps (complete and available)
IP Geolocation Views and Maps (TBA)

I'm hoping to have this done to a basic but demonstrable level well before DrupalCon Portland.
I think it will be very cool if we were to not only give some snazzy presentations, but also demo some of our stuff in D8 -- double WOW factor whammy!

The port of the geoPHP module is ultra-simple, as there are no Views, blocks or configuration options involved.

All I had to do is change the .info file over to a .info.yml file and it all seems to work.

Could you please create a 8.x-1.x branch and an 8.x-1.0-alpha1 release, so that it's out in the open that we are ready to rock D8 !

Thanks so much!
Rik
