Description

The ParserBolt inits the Geo DB in its prepare() method. Parsers, unlike enrichments, do not use geo as a base capability. They should be able to run without the DB file existing in HDFS. This init causes issues if the file is missing, even if GEO_GET is unused in the parser definition.

This change should preserve the ability of Parsers to employ Stellar's GEO_GET. The Stellar function already handles that init, so it shouldn't be an issue.
