This PR restores normal page loading to be synchronous and loads the time slider synchronously as part of page loading. I’ve also fixed a bad merge in directions.js (which is currently inaccessible). The new streamlined initialization code only supports date parameters as hash parameters (after the #). I’ve removed support for date parameters as query parameters (after the ?), which were only supported on a couple of the pages and are probably rarely used.

This also removes a hard-coded list of time-enabled layer IDs, so there are fewer steps to remember when adding a new layer.

Fixes OpenHistoricalMap/issues#1179.

let ohmlayer;
map.eachLayer(function (layer) { // there's only 1 or 0 time layers at a time, so this works
if (historicalLayerKeys.indexOf(layer.options.layerId) !== -1) ohmlayer = layer;
if (layer instanceof L.OSM.OHM) ohmlayer = layer;

This assumes every instance of L.OSM.OHM is time-enabled. That’s currently true, but if we ever choose to publish an all-time cumulative style that isn’t filtered by date, then we’ll need to push this decision down to each instance of L.OSM.OHM via a new property in layers.yml.
