[Imports] [buildings] Italy

[Cascafico Giovanni]

Martin,
when we trace buildings we often use aerial imagery with no metadata
available.

AFAIK, Mapbox, Maxar, ESRI do not offer acquisition date in pubilshed
licenced versions. Bing does.
Nevertheless, we happily use all of them.

Overall check: I mean working with an amount of data that allows some
supervision (sampled alignment) and josm validator before upload.
