Description

Right now the process of obtaining and preparing OSM QA tiles is a bit slow because we:
1. Download an entire country QA file
2. Use `tippecanoe-decode` + `stream-filter.js` to create a GeoJSON of all features in just the desired bounding box.
3. Retile this data using `tippecanoe` to the desired zoom level.

In theory, this would be possible to do much faster (although with more dependencies) if there were a way to fetch arbitrary tiles (or bounding boxes) from OSM QA data through another method (possibly a third party service)
