[Imports] Hungarian CLC import

Hi,

in fact CLC data is not so accurate, as the patch size should be at a
minimum of 25ha and the segment minimum length of 100m ! it's not bad when
looking the data at a small scale, but when using a high zoom level it's
not so good ...

May I suggest to use the word "CLC" or "Corinne" in your source tag ?
"Készítette
a FÖMI a KvVM megbízásából ", even with the use of an automatic translator,
it is really not obvious that it's related to CLC import !
Don't hesitate also to make a wiki page about Hungary CLC import, and to
add oit on the lit (

Cheers,
Sylvain
