[mkgmap-dev] is_in filter

One matter that has been discussed several times on this list is the 
need to remove buildings. While removing buildings is becoming 
absolutely necessary in many cities, due to massive building imports, it 
may be quite convenient to keep them at rural or low densely populated 
areas. Would it be possible to have a filter to know if a building is 
inside/outside an area tagged landuse=residential, so that a different 
rendering may be applied. Ideally area size could be also evaluated. 
Perhaps some logic currently existing in mkgmap, used to assign 
addresses from bounds, could be reused.
