I would probably tag this in analogy to a "Y"-shaped junction, a
"T"-junction or a cloverleaf interchange: map the individual roads. End.

It is not a roundabout, so there are no additional generally approved tags.
Of course you could also add a junction=hamburger_roundabout, why not. (The
only risk is that the next armchair mapper, improving the map remotely,
would probably change this to roundabout because "hamburger-roundabout" is
not in his canon of acceptable tags).

cheers,
Martin
