MapTilesPackager improvements

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Could you please add the following features to the map tiles packager:

1) -d and thus creating a compressed archive in the end should be optional:
Most applications I know need the uncompressed tree structure anyway,... and 
it's often useful, to simply just create that tree.
Apart from that, people can do the compression manually better (especially in 
any format they want).

2) Support kind of a no-clobber option, so that files in a given temp-dir, that 
are already existing, are not re-downloaded.
This is especially useful, if one downloads large areas, which takes very long 
and one wants to interrupt this.

3) Improve the option from (2), so that one can specify that files with a 
modification date older than foo, are still downloaded, even if they already 
exist.

Cheers,
Chris.

Done part 2 in revision 301, but not as an option - never download if tile 
already exists. Do you really need it as an option? Probably I can combine it 
with the option for part 3.

I guess a combination with (3) would be the best, yes.

I don't intend working on the tile packager any more. It's easier to use 
MobileAtlasCreator.

The OSMMapTilePackager is no longer maintained.
