[Imports] UN Mappers import of UNSOS waterways in Somalia

[Rafael Avila Coya]

Hi all again:

I've updated the wikis with the different improvements discussed last 
week. The correction of old MadMappers highways is in Appendix 1 of the 
workflow wiki, but not part of the import (just optional), so you may 
have a look to it for comments.

Cheers,

Rafael.
