[Imports] Import of 14, 020 United Nations Mission in Liberia place nodes

[Andrew Buck]

It's not a question of doing it quick it is that there are already many mis tagged places anyway so we need to go over them all afterwards anyway. Just setting them to hamlet means fewer of them need to be changed in this second round of processing so that is the way to do it. Since it is us that will be doing that step anyway it makes sense for us to decide on the workflow.
