Add/modify menu to display ALL cycleways

[markongh]

Under the Transportation -> Cycling menu, it would be helpful to have an option to display ALL cycleways in a similar fashion to how all footways are displayed under the Transportation -> Walking -> Footways menu. Currently, only Cycle Routes are displayed which neglects any cycleways that are not part of a designated route relation. The Footways menu will display cycleways if they have the Allowed Access tag foot=yes/designated, but if there is a cycleway with the foot= tag not specified and it is not part of a cycle route relation, it will not show up in either the Footways or Cycle Routes menus.

Proposed solution: Add a menu under Transportation -> Cycling to display all cycleways, similar to how the Footways menu operates under Transportation -> Walking.

Another possible solution would be to modify the Cycle Routes menu to display all cycle ways, but I see value in having a menu option that only displays Cycle Routes.

I frequently use OpenStreetBrowser to identify areas where footways and cycleways are not well mapped in order to improve pedestrian routing and I've come across this shortfall a few times. Here is an example of one such case: https://www.openstreetbrowser.org/#map=18/39.06248/-76.96341&basemap=osm-mapnik&categories=footways,cycle_routes

This is kind of on my todo list quite some time :-) I will look into this soon. Do you have any specific requests which I should consider? What about directions, should I show them as well (considering, that there's a special category for this already)?

I think showing directions could be a good thing, but I'm not sure how common one way cycleways are. They don't seem to be very common in my area. Typically if it is one way, that can be inferred by the side of the road the lane is on. I think just getting the cycle ways displayed will go a long way. Thanks for looking into this!

So, I finally came up with a first version. Cycleways are incredible complex, because you have to consider highway=cycleway, streets with cycleway=, cycleway:left=, cycleway:right=, segregation, .... You even have to consider the driving_side of the country the way is within, because cycleway= on oneway streets depend on this (I finally added a driving_side to OpenStreetBrowser, which I have to blog about).

Anyway. You can test it on the development branch:

The colors might not be optimal yet ...

I'm glad if you have an suggestions or other feedback.

Also, I added a "Cycleway Width" category.
