Extend useful map wrapper functions

[jeff-up]

Adding these functions provides the user with the ability to get the bounds, center, or zoom on initialization/without having to rely on an event being triggered. Additionally, if the user is doing some expensive computation in event handlers, they can chose to do do them in the idle event handler as opposed to the any of the event handlers that update through the entire map transformation.

@SebastianM, I'm not sure what I need to change here. Could you point me in the direction as to what is causing the codecov failures?

[ghost]

what would this be used for?

[jeff-up]

Specifically for me, when I create an instance of the map I am setting the zoom and the center. From there I need the bounds so I can show a list view of the items on the map next to the map. When a user interacts with the map I can get the new bounds from a change event, but without the functions I added there is no way to get the initial values of zoom, center, or bounds without seeing them yourself.

you can listen to a boundsChange event
