Somebody emailed me to ask where to find the tool that generated our
geoip file. I was about to suggest that they search for "geoip-db-tool",
when I found that you can't actually search for that and find our code.
Therefore, I'm adding a link.
We do this to avoid useless outputs but also, in the CI environement,
the Python logging package stacktraces with a problem on a socket.
The command still works but the logging fails. With the quiet switch, we
don't get such stacktrace.

The --include-asn option includes AS numbers in the geoip mapping.
The --output-asn option makes the program generate a number-to-name
mapping file.
Additionally, the script now outputs ?? CC entries for networks that
are listed but which have no country known.
The IPFire people provide a tool that collects data from several
top-level sources, combines it into a single database, and annotates
it with optional overrides. This tool transforms the "dump" format
of their database into the form Tor expects.
