[Tilecache] Switch from metaTile=false to true

[Martin Ouellet]

Alex,
At the end, the metatile is cut in little pieceor tile (with the python PIL
library) so there is no difference (please correct me if I'am wrong...).
metatile=true is great to have a better labeling management and to reduce
the number of WMS calls when creating/seeding the tiles.
