[mkgmap-dev] side effects add-pois-to-lines

well as it seems to be performance related, would it be then possible to 
have a new file (e.g. linepois) where such definitions go into?
Otherwise I think it's still okay, one just needs to take care with all 
POI keys that are waterway; highway;barrier and so on---- and tag them 
with mkgmap:line2poi!=true.
