This implements the German Autobahn shield for #389. It’s OHM-specific for now because only OHM is consistently namespacing the network=* value with DE:. The corresponding routes in OSM are still tagged with an out-of-pattern network=BAB.

OHM is consistently tagging these roads based on their symbols instead of trying to map them to English keywords.

OHM tiles use an underscore instead of a colon for localized name properties.
Prefer route_road_*_network_wikidata fields over route_road_*_network fields. Aliased some shield definitions based on QIDs. Look up Wikidata metadata by QID.

Replaced the OSMUS Tile Service and OpenMapTiles with the official OpenHistoricalMap tile server and tile schema. Installed Timescope and maplibre-gl-dates for time filtering.
This is still a proof of concept. No decision yet on whether to integrate this functionality into the main OSM Americana application or maintain it as a separate application specific to OHM. The design and tagging implications are being discussed in this forum thread.
