Measure distance mode implemented in #299

[LVSant]

Hello @supersonicclay,
I see that #299 introduced Measurement Mode on Demo website, but looks like the pipeline failed to generate a new version.

https://github.com/uber/nebula.gl/runs/324055731

I'd like to use nebula.gl with this MeasureDistanceMode.
Is it possible to have a fix, and generate a new build version?

@leonardoviveiros the pipeline does not publish versions only verifies the build.
We will have a new release soon.
