[FR] Add a weather forecast in the trips UI #212

Hi 👋, I looked into this a few months ago, but it quickly became too complex and compromised the app's minimalist design. Showing a general forecast for a trip or even by day is unreliable because users visit multiple locations, sometimes hundreds of kilometers apart. Adding weather for every individual plan isn't feasible either. Since weather changes rapidly, we can't cache the data, which would result in a massive volume of API calls. Very few free services would support the tens of thousands of requests this would generate each month. Ultimately, I am not in favor of a half-measure implementation that wouldn't cover the majority of use cases 👍. |

About 80 lines backend + 30 lines frontend. Will open a PR. |

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It would be nice to have the weather forecast show for the date, time, and place so the trip is easier to plan, in terms of packing essentials.
Describe the solution you'd like
A small icon with temperature display works well. This can be added besides the place name. Hover text can include some more details on the weather.
