[Tagging] Possibility to draw parking properties as an area

[Mateusz Konieczny]

What is the reason for not tagging it as an area?

This seems to mix drawbacks of tagging as area and as a tag on road:
- geometry is not mapped
- it is complicated to match it to a road
- not handled by most of data consumers
- highly unusual tagging
