[Tagging] Route relations - Forward & Backward

[Jo]

In bus route relations the ways don't get roles. In this case some ways
would be members twice.

In walking and cycling route relations we do use them. Those are
bidirectional, whereas the bus and tram routes describe start to terminus
for all variations.
