 This ticket is intended to continue the discussion started at #19420 about
 GeoIP database reliability.
 To outline:
 *  We use only one source of ASN mappings (MaxMind's GeoIP)
 *  This source became unreliable recently (#19154, #19420)
 *  The data is maintained manualy and this process is pretty crafty. So
 it's good to move this process to vcs like Git.
