we were already using quilt for larger data files (like tract shapefiles) but this PR moves the rest of the data into that model as well. The county and state shapefiles are now distributed with quilt, which trims down the size of the repo and keeps things consistent. When users import LTDB or NCDB, they will now be stored in a local quilt database, which provides some benefits
