Accept bounds to limit area generation

Temporary workaround

echo "[-124, 47, -121, 50]" | mercantile tiles 12 | jq -r '"\(.[2])/\(.[0])/\(.[1])"' |\
tilekiln-generate tiles

Here's an example of using mercantile to get a list of tiles for bounding box of Poland and zoom levels from 6 to 12:

import mercantile as m

with open('./cache_low_zoom_tiles.sh', 'w', encoding='UTF-8') as f:
    for tile in m.tiles(14.0, 49.0, 24.03, 54.86, [6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12]):
        f.write(f'curl -s localhost/tiles/{tile.z}/{tile.x}/{tile.y}.pbf > /dev/null \n')

I could try to add it but what would you like the interface to look like? --bbox option taking string formed as 4 floats separated by commas?

Yes
