This allows applications using Google Play location APIs to use the GrapheneOS location
implementation instead.
With location request rerouting enabled, Google Play Services usually does not need the `Location`
permission for normal application location requests.
Its location permission can therefore generally be set to `Don't allow`.
Some Google-specific features, such as certain location-sharing functions, may still require
Google Play Services to have location access.
If network location is unreliable while Wi-Fi itself is disabled, `Wi-Fi scanning` can optionally
be enabled.
If Wi-Fi is already enabled, `Wi-Fi scanning` is generally not required for network-based location.
From a privacy standpoint it can otherwise remain disabled.
`Bluetooth scanning` is generally not required for GrapheneOS Network Location and can remain
disabled unless another feature specifically depends on it.
