Title: Replace file_get_contents with remote::get in Geocoder

Additionally,
* Some people can't modify their php.ini to set allow_url_fopen
* Some people consider file_get_contents a security issue
* fsockopen/fread is (slightly) faster than file_get_contents
* "remote::get" has fewer characters than "file_get_contents"!
