In some areas of the world, ship transportation is the main means of long-distance travel. For example, in Alaska, the [Alaska Marine Highway System](https://dot.alaska.gov/amhs/route.shtml) is the principal means of transportation through the Alaska Panhandle and down the Aleutian island chain. The AMHS carries the same importance that the Interstate Highway System has on land, and these ferry routes are exceptionally long distance.

This PR adds track and path rendering at lower zooms than currently provided, and also achieves near-parity with openstreetmap-carto on track and path rendering. A previously-abandoned attempt, with significant discussion, was #1169.
This PR adds a layer for `highway=motorway_junction` features.
This implementation of highway exits in the transportation_name layer add to the existing layer table structure, and renames the internal column name from "construction" (which was already overloaded with non-construction usages) to "subclass", which will be less confusing to future developers. The string 'junction' is used as the universal sub-class for highway exits.
A new documentation PR has been opened at openmaptiles/www.openmaptiles.org#69 to reflect these changes in the documentation.
To avoid discontinuous transportation lines between zooms 9 and 11.
- Originally limit geometry by length for z9 - z11 (`ST_Length(geometry) > ZRes(11)`)
- highway z9 to z11 was generalized during import-osm
- now just create a filtered and generalized z11 table
- then merge segments in the same way as from (full-featured) osm_highway_linestring and used this merged z11 for mat.view z10 and z9
Close#1107
Replacing materialized view by a tables with update from trigger on change only.
Differential update of `osm_transportation_name_linestring`, `osm_transportation_name_linestring` and `osm_transportation_name_linestring_genX`).
At the end of the transaction the dependent rows are updated.
The goal is to update more quickly the content of derivated tables by just updating the changing content. It replaces the update of materialized view because their need a full recompute (with lock issue).
It is the last part of the replacement of materialized view for the transportation layer.
It addresses #814 and a part of #809.
Seems like etl and mapping diagrams have been neglected
for a long time. Now it regenerates the files and places
them in the source dir.
This PR also fixes two broken files:
* layers/aerodrome_label/mapping_diagram.png
* layers/housenumber/mapping_diagram.png
They were generated using the newest tools version with the fix
