Change source to MVT (from TopoJSON)

Per request from @bcamper.

It's not clear if all Mapzen house styles should default to MVT, or only if they get included in a native app. Since all end up getting included in native apps, is it the native app's responsibility to modify this?

Is there a downside to using MVT everywhere? I seem to remember that MVT is about 30% faster for parsing natively and I think it's roughly the same as TopoJSON on the web.

It's worth doing some benchmarks, but I've never noticed any significant
difference on the web, so I would be cool to use MVT everywhere for
simplicity.

For debug GUI in the HTML/JS rig we'd keep that link out to TopoJSON for human legibility, but change the Tangram YAML source to MVT.
