samples: cellular: Fix printing of GPS coordinates

simonduq · rlubos · commit e5631ca15b64 · 2026-05-04T15:17:11.000+02:00
The current log line shows wrong coordinates, for example the Stockholm
office prints as 59.339759 N 18.013012 W which is incorrect; the correct
location being 59.339759 N 18.013012 E (because positive longitude means
"east"). Standard notation (ISO-6709) is to use either direction letters
or integer sign; not both combined.

This PR aligns the formet to what we have in other samples: signed
values rather than direction letters.
