Guido Falsi f785779b1b net/ntopng: Fix GeoIP data download script
MaxMind now requires a free account with an API key to access its
APIs to download the GeoLite2 datanases.

Update scripts to adapt to new API interface and use API key provided
via %%LOCALBASE%%/etc/GeoIP.conf

Update pkg-message to provide this information.
