[Feat] Reduce duplicate code between grass.jupyter.SeriesMap and grass.jupyter.TimeSeriesMap

[chaedri]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In #3036, we added a new visualization class for viewing and animating a series of related rasters or vectors. Similar to TimeSeriesMap, SeriesMap uses ipywidgets. Because of the similarities between the two classes, there is a significant amount of duplicated code, particularly in the class __init__ and image rendering.

Describe the solution you'd like
The code should be refactored to reduce duplication. One possible solution is a base class that consolidates methods used by both classes.

Hi @chaedri, I would like to work on this. I think it's a good idea to create a base class that both can share to avoid writing the same code twice. Here's my plan:

1. Create a new base class (BaseMap) and move the common code into this class (from __init__ and _render_baselayers).
2. Make TimeSeriesMap and SeriesMap inherit from BaseMap.
3. Replace the common code in TimeSeriesMap and SeriesMap with calls to the base class code.

Welcome! Your plan sounds good, I would probably name it BaseSeriesMap. There are many methods that have very similar, but not identical code, so there may be a need to generalize the code a bit. I think you will find it helpful to first run the notebook with TimeSeriesMap to better understand how it is being used.

Welcome @29riyasaxena ! This sounds good to me too. I'll add the example mentioned in #3467 so you can see that too.

Hi @chaedri, I've made adjustments to the code and have just pushed it to #3468. I'd appreciate it if you could take a look and provide your feedback. Thanks!
