Improved support for ArcGIS compact caches

MapProxy now also supports version 2 of the ArcGIS compact cache format. The performance for version 1 was improved as well.

The new tool mapproxy-util defrag can be used to reduce the size of compact cache bundle safter tiles were removed/updated.

See: https://mapproxy.org/docs/1.11.0/caches.html#compact and https://mapproxy.org/docs/1.11.0/mapproxy_util.html#defrag-compact-cache

Improved reprojection

The accuracy for reprojections on low map scales improved while the performance improved for mid to high map scales.

Improved HTTPS handling

MapProxy now uses CA certificates provided by your system if you use Python >=2.7.9 or >=3.4. The ssl_no_cert_checks option was broken with these Python versions. This is now fixed. The ssl_ca_certs option is still available for older systems, or for custom CA certificates.

See: https://mapproxy.org/docs/1.11.0/configuration.html#secure-http-connections-https
