[Tagging] Mapping larger Mini-roundabouts

[Andrew Errington]

I propose that the radius would be from the centre of the
mini-roundabout to the centreline of the road around it.

And to the previous poster who said that diameter would be better as
it is hard to estimate the centre, I agree in general, but in this
case we specify precisely where the centre is (it's the lat/lon of the
node).  I assert that centre + radius is the correct way to define
this.

Best wishes,

Andrew
