[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Use new OSRM API (#1261)

So some specific issues with the new icons:

* Icon 16 has bad the direction of the arrows reversed - admittedly I don't think it's actually used but we should either remove it or keep it the same.
* Icons 8 (start) and 14 (end) are the same, which made sense when it was just a blob but doesn't now you've added an arrow, though you seem to be using 9 for start with OSRM anyway.

In general terms as I said I'm not a great fan of the thinner lines, shorter arrows and generally more anguiar forms compared to the old icons.

Some of the new ones are also very complicated though I understand it's hard to visualise such things in such a small space. Icons 20 and 21 in particular are hard to understand, though I'm not really sure where they would be used anyway - there are very few places where roads "merge" other than on ramps and those have other icons anyway (well actually they don't, they use slight-right and slight-left!).
