[Imports] Fort Worth, Texas import

[Daniel O'Connor]

Hi Andrew,
With https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Microsoft_Building_Footprint_Data
also becoming available recently; any thoughts on (perhaps a separate
project?) cross checking that against whats available in OSM in addition to
the import here?

Texas Lubbock, Longview,* part of Fort Worth*, Austin, downtown Houston,
and Corpus Christi

236,466 buildings available
