Tiger 2017 data support

Description

The census usually releases tiger data in mid-August.

They are a tad late, however I see they have created the 2017 folder

https://www2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2017/

Which means they probably aren't too far off from releasing.

I suspect they will release the data just in time for us to include the load scripts as part of PostGIS 2.4.0

I'll push this to 2.5 and push back to 2.4 if Tiger comes out before release.

Yeh they finally came out with tiger 2017 data and looks like they went back to just regular old ftp. ftp://ftp2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2017/

I'm going to push this to 2.4.1 and hopefully I won't have to make too many changes.

Looks like they significantly changed the edges structure enough to make it dangerous to backport as I'll probably need to make structural changes or rethink load script.

In 15984:

Fix tiger 2017 edges load issue by doing following:

insert to be ordered by column name instead of ordinal_position.

Exclude divroad from edges load which now appears to be no longer present in 2017 edges data.
