/**
 * @class
 * KML loader factory - inherits from remote loader
 *
 * <p>This is a loader class for KML files. Currently supports all geometry
 * types (point, polyline, polygon, and overlay) and multiple geometries.</p>
 *
 * @example Usage in TimeMap.init():
 
    datasets: [
        {
            title: "KML Dataset",
            type: "kml",
            options: {
                url: "mydata.kml"   // Must be local
            }
        }
    ]
 *
 * @param {Object} options          All options for the loader:<pre>
 *   {Array} url                        URL of KML file to load (NB: must be local address)
 *   {Function} preloadFunction         Function to call on data before loading
 *   {Function} transformFunction       Function to call on individual items before loading
 * </pre>
 * @return {TimeMap.loaders.remote} Remote loader configured for KML
