[Imports] Continuing the New Zealand street address import

[Mateusz Konieczny]

Looks well! 

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/New_Zealand_Street_Addresses_(2021)#Potential_issues
I guess that "people using RapiD midlessly" is one, I guess that it will be used as some review is
needed (probably to cleanup existing and slightly differently formatted addresses?
maybe also as sanity check for the official data?)

What is the plan for dealing with official data that is malformed, incorrect or otherwise wrong?
Or is it possible that it will not happen at all? (In Poland we were not so lucky,
and https://budynki.openstreetmap.org.pl/ needs special support for blacklisting bogus data,
we also report invalid addresses to government ).

Some minor nitpicking:

just to confirm, is it safe to assume that deleted addresses are gone?

goals has
"To add the ref:linz:address_id <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:ref:linz:address_id>=* tag to 40,000 addresses where the tag
was not added during the initial import, or where it was removed when address
points were manually merged with buildings"

has EXISTS_BUT_NO_LINZ_REF as "tbc"
