Sometimes one has to deal with a shapefile which has many features in
it, but you only want to import some subset based on key / value
combinations of their fields. This commit adds the --only-with option
to let you specify that only features with particular properties should
be imported from the file. For example, you could do:
./manage.py mapit_import \
--only-with=TIPO:CIUDAD \
--only-with=PROVINCIA:'BUENOS AIRES' \
...
010_Ejidos_Urbanos.shp
... to only import the boundaries of cities in the province of Buenos
Aires.

FIXME: It'd be nice if there were an example ESRI Shapefile in the
MapIt fixtures so I could write a test for this, but I couldn't find a good
example file that would be small, acceptably licensed and contain
a few features with different properties.
