Allow `BBOX` to be set in `.env` file (#1013)

* Allow setting `BBOX` to be set in `.env` file

Currently, the `BBOX` setting in `.env` is ignored for all areas except `planet`.
On the other hand, the `planet` area is an overkill for any `BBOX` setting other than the default - `-180.0,-85.0511,180.0,85.0511`.

With this PR, `quickstart.sh` would not override a modified `BBOX` value in `.env`. 

Also, this provides a way to avoid the pessimistic `BBOX` computation for `osmfr` extracts, as described in https://github.com/openmaptiles/openmaptiles-tools/pull/297#issuecomment-700792702

#### Currently
- If the user does not do anything, `quickstart.sh` and `make generate-tiles` create an `mbtiles` file for the full extent of the data source. This applies to `planet` and other data sources.
- If a user sets the `BBOX` value in `.env` and a `planet` data source is used, `quickstart.sh` and `make generate-tiles` create an `mbtiles` file for the extent set in the `.env` file.
- If a user sets the `BBOX` value in `.env` and a non-`planet` data source is used, it is ignored - `quickstart.sh` and `make generate-tiles` create an `mbtiles` file for the full extent of the data source.

#### Problem statement
While users of a `planet` data source have a simple way to override the default extend of the tile generation, users of other data sources have no simple way of doing that. In fact, for such users the `BBOX` setting in the `.env` file is ignored and therefore misleading.

#### Proposal
- If the user does not do anything, `quickstart.sh` and `make generate-tiles` create an `mbtiles` file for the full extent of the data source. This applies to `planet` and other data sources.
- If a user sets the `BBOX` value in `.env`, `quickstart.sh` and `make generate-tiles` create an `mbtiles` file for the extent set in the `.env` file. This applies to `planet` and other data sources.
