[Tagging] shop=kiosk

shops should be tagged with shop=<shop category>, which refers to the
kind of stuff sold, also in cases like supermarket or convenience,
which are less obvious then e.g. shop=electronics.

shop=kiosk breaks this rule, as it doesn't refer to the sold products
but to the building typology.

Therefore I'd like to propose to use building=kiosk and mark
shop=kiosk as deprecated. The 10184 uses of shop=kiosk should be
retagged by local mappers to indicate the product(s) sold (newspaper,
fast_food, lottery-stuff, tobacco, etc.)

cheers,
Martin
