[GraphHopper] Routeing option: Walking on mixed cycle/footpath

[Peter]

Hmmh, that is a common problem: it is a cycleway and foot is not
explicitely allowed there. So strictly speaking this is correct
according to the mapping.

I understand the problem and I also found places where this was ugly for
myself. At the same time there are places where it is important to keep
walking people off this road. What we could do is allow access but make
it AVOID_AT_ALL_COSTS.
