[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Change low zoom projection from Mercator to Globe/Sphere (#2604)

[Seth Deegan]

I should have posted this sooner, but now I'm more educated about how the OSM website works, concerns, etc.

**CesiumJS is currently a choice:**
https://cesium.com/cesiumjs/

Disadvantage: It's not lightweight.
However, it does support both 3d and 2d maps, so maybe switching between the two for different platforms might be an option?

Someone more experienced with tile servers should probably look into it.
