[Tagging] improve tagging of traffic_calming

I think what Gerd is saying is that if we deprecate the use of
highway=traffic_calming and instead tag each way segment with just
traffic_calming=* (or simply use a node in those case where the structure
of the device is short), we would eliminate the issue where, for example, a
secondary highway changes to highway=traffic_calming, and then back to
highway=secondary, then back to highway=traffic_calming, and back
to highway=secondary, etc.

Eliminating the highway=traffic_calming tag and using *only* the
traffic_calming=* tag for those sections would be a better way to handle
them.

I'm starting to agree with him.
