This program is very useful and works great. Would it be possible to add support for other data sources like Shapefile or PostGIS ?

Research direction

The issue requests support for Shapefile or PostGIS data sources but names no files, tests, or entry points. First determine how tippecanoe currently accepts GeoJSON, then define the supported source formats and verify that each can produce the expected vector tiles.
