world map 06 linear breaks + quantiles scale

06 linear breaks, quantiles scale

this iteration uses a quantile scale with naive linear breaks to map values in the data to colors on the choropleth map

the remaining examples in this design study also use a quantile scale to map data thresholds to discrete colors.

🎩 @adamrpearce for suggesting a quantile scale over in the #help channel of the d3js slack
