Mobility Database API V1

[emmambd]

Describe the problem

• Trip planning apps need to easily consume the data that is provided in the Mobility Database.
• The TransitFeeds API was highly used, and is still providing data that cannot be updated. This API needs to be deprecated so the community can easily access data that is more up-to-date.

Proposed solution

Launching a first release that lets consumers get GTFS Schedule and GTFS Realtime feeds, including historical datasets for GTFS Schedule data. Feeds will still be added via https://github.com/MobilityData/mobility-database-catalogs for this first iteration.
