Description
The census usually releases tiger data in mid-August.
They are a tad late, however I see they have created the 2017 folder
https://www2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2017/
Which means they probably aren't too far off from releasing.
I suspect they will release the data just in time for us to include the load scripts as part of PostGIS 2.4.0

Yeh they finally came out with tiger 2017 data and looks like they went back to just regular old ftp. ftp://ftp2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2017/
I'm going to push this to 2.4.1 and hopefully I won't have to make too many changes.

Looks like they significantly changed the edges structure enough to make it dangerous to backport as I'll probably need to make structural changes or rethink load script.
At a glance looks like they decided to alphabetize the columns in edges. Not sure why they didn't bother doing that with the other tables.

Was able to get to work without any structural changes so will back-port
I'll push this to 2.5 and push back to 2.4 if Tiger comes out before release.
