[Tile-serving] [openstreetmap/osm2pgsql] Add a script for simple updating of a database (#1411)

[Stephan]

Quite interesting. With osmosis being end-of-life and osmupdate also last update three years ago, it is nice to see some alternatives around.

It is nice that it detects from a Geofabrik pbf file that is has there a replication service for extracts.
@mmd-osm that would cover your use-case. run init with the osm-file parameter.

If I use a Geofabrik extract as a base for my own extract then it does still insist to load updates from there.
I would like to reduce dependency to 3rd party services. When running without a parameter it tries to guess the starting sequence. Why not allowing to specify the state file URL where to start?

I also noticed that if I update my extract that there is no way to have a polygon filtering applied before feeding in the updates to the database.

Could you include a polygon filtering like the one used here:
