reverse geocoder rating setting for prefer numbered highway name

[robe]

Many highways have a local name and a numbered state, county, interstate number. When the reverse geocoder returns an address on one of these, currently it arbitrarily picks one alias preferring ones that have names and higher alphabetically. Some people don't like that (like the company paying me for this change).

This will be a new entry in geocode_settings table called: reverse_geocode_numbered_roads

Which will be an integer that has value 0, 1 , 2

0 - don't care just give me some name for this road 1 - Prefer the numbered alias 2 - Prefer the local state or county name for road

This will also require change to reverse_geocode function to check this setting and act accordingly.

completed at r9861. To prefer numbered name you would do

SELECT set_geocode_setting('reverse_geocode_numbered_roads', '1');
SELECT pprint_addy((reverse_geocode('POINT(-71.355863 42.602466)'::geometry)).addy[1])

Gives output of:

To prefer local name

SELECT set_geocode_setting('reverse_geocode_numbered_roads', '2');
SELECT pprint_addy((reverse_geocode('POINT(-71.355863 42.602466)'::geometry)).addy[1])

Example:

SELECT pprint_addy((reverse_geocode('POINT(-71.355863 42.602466)'::geometry)).addy[1]);
