Calculate an ideal min/max zoom #142

Can we add min/max zoom data to the metadata record associated with each dataset? Can this be safely updated incrementally within the metadata.addFeature, .updateFeature, .deleteFeature methods?

An example of the heuristic that we generally use to calculate the zoom range is here: https://github.com/mapbox/tilelive-cardboard/blob/0e1675e69fceed4e8e654951e5b1019cc8d198e3/index.js#L110-L133

Actually just had a slightly better thought, which is that this heuristic could be applied at read-time from the getDatasetInfo side.
