[mkgmap-dev] default style improvements

Tue Dec 4 23:03:09 GMT 2018

I don't think it's a good idea to add other bad highway tags to the
default style. They should be fixed in osm. I would get rid of all
these:

highway=minor
highway=byway
highway=driveway
highway=access
highway=footpath
highway=foot
highway=unsurfaced
highway=layby
highway=gallop
